This soup comes from the famous Australian, Tommy Nicholas, owner of "Tommy - Raw Blend" You Tube site. Tommy gave me permission to use his recipe on my site. I wrote him, telling him of my visiit with my partner in Florida for two weeks. I had no kitchen, nada. The only appliance I had was a Vita Mixer that I left with him before I moved back to Cape Cod. So, I had to be creative. I began perusing healthy recipes for the Vita Mix and came across Tommy's site with this wonderful soup recipe. While down south, I made this a few nights for our dinner and loved it. Easy, healthy, and filling!! Thanks, Tommy for letting me share your recipe and site with others. Let's spread the message that 'food is the new medicine'!

- 2 cups water
- 1 cup frozen baby peas
- 2 medium zucchinis (organic so can leave skins on)
- 8 asparagus spears
- 1 small handful of fresh basil
- 1 handful fresh mint
- 1 small handful of fresh coriander
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 Massel vegetarian stock cube (chicken flavored)
- 1 medjool date
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup coconut cream or a good handful of raw nuts
Put all the ingredients into the Vita Mixer in order listed and blend for 5-6 minutes. The machine will heat the soup.
Note: You can start with hot water and that will quicken the heat process.
Enjoy with a hearty piece of whole grain bread!!
