Fresh Green Soup Recipe

	Noir / All my dishes 2 years, 3 months ago This soup has the robust flavours of zucchini, spinach and basil. My Family loves this when vegetables are at their best in Summer or for that matter any time. It is my favourite soup to serve during the Holidays as it adds something special to the table. Enjoy!...

If you make pumpkin soup also and pur each soup in a pitcher, then serve by pouring alternately into the soup bowls, you have harlequin soup...very colorful and tasy. great post~
