Spinach, Pea and Mint Soup
One of the many things I love about winter is homemade soup. It’s such a simple way of getting lots of goodness in you and I find a real good soup, like this spinach, pea and mint soup, truly does have the ability to warm the heart.
The pea and mint soup combo was actually inspired by a favourite summer salad of mine – pea, mint & feta. It’s such a great combo (and here I’ve given it that extra popeye boost through the spinach), just the strength that’s needed to carry us through the winter months.
Spinach is full to the brim with Vitamin K, A, B, C and E. That, along with the copper, magnesium, Iron and Potassium is what wins it it’s place in the worlds healthiest foods hall of fame. The reason I love it in the winter (well it’s pretty much a staple all year round but specifically in the winter), is because all those properties mean it gives you a great boost of energy, revitalises the heart and helps fight off the dreaded sniffles winter brings.

How many does this serve?
Hi Ann, If I remember rightly it serves four. I uploaded this recipe a while ago hence my hesitation. But if you make it do let me know how you go.
Thanks, Nat x
