How to Make Healthy Vegetarian Celery Soup

So if you were wondering what to do with celery here’s my answer: celery soup!  It’s really healthy and vegetarian which is how I roll.  I also like recipes where all the ingredients are things you can eat raw without dying!*

 

• 150g chopped celery
• chopped clove of garlic (fyi a bulb is the full thing, a clove is one of the little wedges inside)
• chopped onion
• 200ml veg stock
• oil
• single cream for garnish

This is a really quick and simple recipe.

1. Heat the oil in a saucepan and add the celery, garlic, onion, and fry on a low heat.
2. Cook for about 5mins to soften.
3. Make the veg stock and pour into the saucepan.
4. Pour everything in a blender and blitz.
5. Pour into a bowl and add a splash of single cream

That’s it.

I said this was a healthy recipe and it’s certainly low calorie; 150g of celery has about 15 calories in it!  But that’s obvs not enough to live on and it contains no carbs or protein to speak of.  I suggest doing what I did which is having the soup with cheese on toast to make it more substantial.  Or have the soup for starter (in which case I would halve the quantity).
