Soup #2 is a peas-edamame-mint soup 💚 Refreshing, yet filling…just what my wisdom teeth healing process ordered! — Fun fact: peas, mint and soy beans are cooling foods. Which means they cool your body down. Perfect in summer or when you’re battling with inflammation (like me atm!)_ R E C I P E: 1️⃣ Warm up your soup pan with olive oil and cut one onion & 1 clove of garlic. Start glazing them. 2️⃣ Add 400 grams of frozen peas, 100 grams of edamame beans (for that extra protein ya knowwww) & 2 finely chopped mint branches. 2️⃣ Stirr and let it simmer for 1-2 min, then add 0.75-1 liter of water, 1 stock cube (use whatever you have) and seasoning spices: salt, pepper and I added a pinch of thyme. 2️⃣ Let it come to a boil (15-20 min) and blend everything up. Done! Serve it with fresh mint and crème freche.
