Broccoli-Spinach Soup with Avocado ToastsServes 4
Hot dog, did I love this soup and these delicious little toasts! I whipped up a batch of the soup early in the week and loved it so much that some days I ate it for both lunch and dinner. If you use bagged spinach this meal is also a snap to prepare—big time bonus for weekday fare. For the toasts, I added a bit more zip by rubbing a peeled garlic clove on the toasted bread before layering on the toppings.
INGREDIENTS
Soup
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 leek, white and pale green parts thinly sliced
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
1 bunch broccoli, chopped (6 cups)
6 ounces baby spinach (6 cups)
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons tahini
coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
Toasts
4 slices rustic bread, toasted
2 avocados, sliced
1/4 cup radish sprouts
1 lemon, cut into wedges
INSTRUCTIONS
Step One: Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add leek and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Add broth; bring to a boil. Add broccoli and cook, covered, until bright green and tender, about 2 minutes.
Step Two: Remove from heat. Stir in spinach, Parmesan, and tahini. Let cool slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
Step Three: Working in batches, puree soup in a blender until smooth.
Step Four: Top bread with avocado and radish sprouts. Season with salt and pepper, squeeze with lemon, and drizzle with oil.
