Zucchini Noodle Soup

Soup, soup, soup! I love soup. It's always such a comfort food and really easy to make. This is a bit of a combination between chicken noodle soup (sans the chicken of course) and a vegetable soup. This is the recipe I like using, but feel free to add as make veggies as you'd like!

Zucchini Noodle Soup

Ingredients:

3 c vegetable broth
3 stalks of celery
1/4 spanish onion
1/2 yellow pepper
1 small zucchini
1/2 bunch green onion
Hot sauce for some extra kick (I like Cholula brand - great spice and full flavours!)


Directions:

1. Bring the vegetable broth to a boil whilst chopping up all the veggies.
2. Once the broth is boiling, toss in the celery, onion and pepper and let boil for about 12 minutes.
3. While the vegetables and broth are boiling, make some zucchini noodles (with a spiralizer or julienne peeler, or a regular peeler for that matter! Depending on the shape of noodle you'd like.
4. Once the vegetables in the broth have softened, turn the heat off and add the zucchini noodles and leave sit for 3-5 minutes. I like mine to have a little crunch to the, but if you'd prefer them softer just leave them for a little longer!
5. Pour the soup into a bowl and top off with some green onion and hot sauce and let the comfort eating begin!

*Note: This recipe makes 2 servings worth.

Keep it spicy loves!
