Broccoli and Salmon Soup
On a health drive after indulging at Christmas? Try this broccoli and salmon soup for lunch - it's healthy and incredibly tasty!
Ingredients
- 700 g broccoli chopped, stalks included
- 100 g watercress, spinach and rocket
- 3 tsbs rapeseed oil olive oil will be fine too
- 1 large onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 500 ml chicken stock
- 400 ml vegetable stock
- salt and pepper seasoning
- 350 g pre cooked salmon
Instructions
- Place the onions in a large saucepan and cook with oil until they are soft.
- Add the chopped broccoli, including the stalks and cook on a medium heat. Pour in a bit of chicken stock so it just covers the bottom of the pan, turn the heat right down and cover for 10-15 until the broccoli has softened.
- Add your bag of watercress, spinach and rocket and stir until it has wilted.
- Take off the heat and add the rest of the chicken stock. With your hand blender whizz everything up. Your mixture will be a little thick now so add the vegetable stock and blend again until smooth.
- Put the soup back on the hob and heat back up to serve. I bought pre cooked salmon and sprinkled it on top of my soup cold. You can always add the salmon and stir it all in.
- Serve and enjoy!
