Even though this meal needs some preparation it is absolutely enjoyable.

This light soup delivers the wonderfully rich taste of celery and makes a great lunch. It even stands out as dinner when served with toasted sprouted whole-grain bread and a glass of wine.

I used for the first time the successor of the Magic Bullet blender named Nutri Bullet. It’s the same principle but a little bit bigger and has an extra third blade and a professional ration speed, cracking seeds of frozen berries as well a pureeing so fine that a smooth creamy is produced (compare the two “Served” or “Prepared” pictures above). Awesome, this is a must in every vegan kitchen.

Now, soups will be fun to make.

 

Puréeing with the new Nutri Bullet

 

It’s so powerful that the entire thick soup swirls
