My farmers market haul + squash and beans from my garden = this amazing soup - easy peasy! Let's do this!
Ingredients - whatever you have on hand. I used:
Random green beans that went to seed before I could eat them as young pods - or use canned, of course!
Cook Squash (I had some left from another meal) or see instructions
Baby Carrots from my last harvest or chop up your big carrots
African Sweet Potato Stew (we are NOT following the recipe but it's AMAZING as is!)
Coconut Milk
Turnip or Parnip or neither - you're in charge!
Green beans or chard or whatever green stuff you have
A lime cause most every meal needs some fresh citrus
Cilantro if you have it and love it! 🙋♀️
Method - this will of course require adaptation depending on your veggies
Cook your beans! I soak all my beans (bean seeds!) a day before cooking. Pour off the soaking water & then pressure cook in fresh water ~18mins
Toss your squash chunks, mix and enough water to cover into your steamer and cook until soft (5-8mins) or if using pre-cooked squash, combine steps 2 & 3
Add Carrots & other root veggies to your Epicure steamer with seasoning and water, cook until almost cooked through - this was 8 mins in my micro - could be more in yours.
If using Green Beans, add and cook approx 2 min
Add Coconut milk, your precooked beans (Seeds) & quick-cooking ingredients, like greens. Cook until greens are nicely wilted.
Add salt, adjust seasonings as desired - I love a splash of Braggs Soy Sauce for that umami hit! Squeeze in from fresh lime with your Citrus Press, drizzle on some Coconut MIlk & some Cilantro and VOILA!!
Happy Growing, Cooking & Eating!
