Notes
- Wonton crisps and the perfect sides to be served with soup will make this recipe out of the world good. And, with so many options, you can switch up your meal each time you make it!
- Choose fresh, crisp, and bright green leaves of spinach and kale. Remember that the fresher the ingredients, the better your soup will taste.
- Wash your greens thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Remove any thick stems before chopping them.
- If you have a heavy-duty immersion blender, you can puree the soup directly in the pot.
- Stop boiling the peas when they're bright green. Overcooking them will sap the flavor.
