I’m a little bit behind posting after a long, fun weekend away in Auckland. I didn’t pack any Larabars or other easy traveling food, we just took it as it came (we were a little unprepared in truth!). This led us to enjoy our greens straight from a bag as a snack and consume creamy avocados straight from the skin with a spoon. Some people live like this everyday I know, but for me this was like clearing another square of a condensated window pane. I kept thinking “Oh! This works!” which coincidentally was the same phrase that came to mind a few days prior to leaving when we put this bright soup together…
Inspired by a Kristen Suzanne recipe, I pared it down to what we had in our cupboard that morning and took out the nut milk to make it purely fruit based. It was a gentle start to our day. Kristen’s addition of the orange zest provided a stunningly delicious accent to this soup.
