Green Goodness Soup for the Soul

This vibrant, trans-seasonal soup is the perfect pick-me-up for any rainy day or when you need a little bit of alkalinity in your cells. You can switch up the ingredients to use what you have on hand. be sure to add some soaked kelp – wakame, ogo nori or arame as this will boost the mineral content and create a natural thickening age due to the mucilaginous (slippery) properties of seaweed.
