There are so many herbs available to me right now that I find myself incorporating them into everything I make. I'm a fan of using dandelions because of their availability right now and their extreme health benefits. I feel quite sad when they are chopped down and thrown out. While many people see weeds, I see food.
There is a sharing garden a few blocks away with herbs and there are herbs in the back here where I am staying.
Since I'm a lover of soup, I've decided to make a soup lush with greens and a few other items.
Along with dandelion, chives, oregano, parsley, and basil, I have added cauliflower, carrots and potatoes.
If you are afraid of bitter greens or greens at all, then eat a soup like this. There is no bitter taste when these herbs are cooked down and blended with other ingredients.
There was no need to use a soup broth for this. The lovely herbs were all that was needed to provide great taste. I also added garlic, onion, cayenne, cumin, onion powder and garlic powder added along with salt and a dash of balsamic. The onion, garlic and carrots were sauteed in just a touch of olive oil.
