Rawsome Blender Soup

“Much virtue in herbs, little in men.”

- Benjamin Franklin 

This blender soup can be spun up in five. It is great when you have a lot of good tomatoes and you want a light, quick lunch, liquid salad, or appetizer. It will last in the fridge for a few days.

For the fresh herbs, today I found in my bathtub garden: sage, parsley, chives, oregano and rosemary.

I use whatever I have on hand, including also thyme, basil, dill, or others. You can use dried herbs if you do not have fresh, or no herbs.

Blend up:

Fresh TOMATOES

A peeled chunked CUCUMBER

Juice of a half LEMON

A tablespoon diced yellow ONION

Liberal splash up to half cup OLIVE OIL

SALT and BRAGGS to taste

Fresh HERBS & SPICES: dried or fresh. Spices are not just for yumminess. 

They are healthy for us, and most can even be considered superfoods.

I added a garnish of chopped chives and the flowers of the sage plant that happens to be blooming now. 

Have some now! Maybe you will feel super!

Be reckoned but with herbs and flowers?"
