Ingredients
Scale
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced
3 cups of vegetable broth
1 small zucchini, diced
1 cup of green beans, trimmed and cut
1 cup of peas (fresh or frozen)
2 cups of kale or spinach, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
Instructions
Sauté the aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until it becomes translucent. Then, toss in the minced garlic and sauté for another minute.
Add the broth: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Bring in the veggies: Add the diced zucchini, green beans, and peas. Allow them to cook for about 10 minutes until they’re tender but not mushy.
Add the greens: Toss in the chopped kale or spinach. Let it simmer for another couple of minutes until the greens are wilted but still vibrant.
Make the pistou: Blend together the fresh basil and lemon juice with a pinch of salt and olive oil until it’s a luscious green paste.
Finish the soup: Stir in the pistou right at the end and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing with more basil or a drizzle of olive oil.
