Carrots and Spinach are superfoods that contain high amounts of carotenoids which, when in the body converts to vitamin A.
With this recipe, you’d not only be eating a delicious meal but a meal your body will be grateful for. If you are a vegan looking for what to eat, try this soup. Before we get started, cooking carrots and spinach makes its vitamins more absorbable and this includes carotenoids.
Let’s get started:
Ingredients
- Olive oil (If we are going to take Nigeria and its economy into consideration, soy or groundnut will do)
- One bulb of onion
- Three smashed garlic
- Salt
- Two Spinach leaves
- Black (Cameroon) pepper
- Three finely chopped carrots
- Chicken or turkey broth
- One bay leaf
Preparations
- Chop your onion, spinach, carrots and bay leaf.
- Heat up your oil
- Put in your chopped onion, and garlic. Stir for one or two minutes
- Add the carrots and pepper. Stir until it starts turning brown
- Add your chicken broth and salt, and leave to boil until the chicken is tender (turn down the heat to low).
- Add your spinach and bay leaf. Leave for about 45 seconds
Some like it hot, some like it cold, whatever you choose is good enough.
