This Roasted Asparagus, Garlic, and Stinging Nettle Soup is a nourishing spring-inspired soup packed with earthy flavor and vibrant green vegetables. Roasting the asparagus and garlic brings out a rich sweetness, while stinging nettles add a mild spinach-like flavor along with important nutrients such as iron, calcium, vitamin C, and antioxidants. Blended into a smooth and creamy soup, it is comforting, heart-friendly, and naturally high in fiber and plant compounds that support overall wellness.

Equipment

  • 1 roasting pan
  • 1 medium pot
  • 1 knife

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 bunch asparagus tough ends removed
  • 8 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 onion sliced
  • 2 cups stinging nettles fresh or 1 cup dried stinging nettles
  • 1.5 quarts vegetable broth
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh chives optional for garnish
  • asparagus tips optional steamed for garnish
  • yogurt optional for garnish
  • 1/4 cup cashews optional for creaminess
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast optional for umami flavor

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Toss the asparagus, garlic cloves and onion with 3 TB olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Roast in at 425 degree oven for 25 minutes.
  • If using fresh stinging nettles add them to a soup pot with 2 tbsp olive oil and cook for 2-3 minutes to wilt and remove the sting. If using dried stinging nettles skip this step and add it along with the broth, asparagus, garlic and onion.
  • Add the vegetable broth, roasted asparagus, garlic and onion and bring to a simmer. If using dried stinging nettles add it now.
  • Use either an immersion blender or a regular blender to puree the soup until creamy. For a creamier soup you can add 1/4 cup of cashews while bending.
  • Garnish your bowl of soup with a dollop of yogurt, or stir in some fresh raw cream or coconut milk. Fresh chopped chives or asparagus tips are great too.

Notes

Stinging nettle can be used in many of the same ways as spinach, kale, or other leafy greens once they are cooked or dried. The fresh plant has tiny hairs that can sting the skin, so careful handling is important before preparation.
Stinging nettles has a moderate amount of oxalates. If this is a concern you can lower the impact by adding yogurt or another dairy product to the soup.

How to Handle Fresh Nettles

  • Wear gloves when harvesting or washing fresh nettles.
  • Use scissors or kitchen shears to trim the leaves and tender tops.
  • Avoid older tough stems, which can become fibrous.

How to Remove the Sting

Cooking, blanching, drying, or steeping nettles neutralizes the stinging hairs.
Common methods:
  • Blanching: Boil for 1–2 minutes, then drain.
  • Sautéing: Cook in a pan until wilted.
  • Roasting: Add to soups or roasted vegetable dishes.
  • Drying: Use dried nettles for tea or seasoning.

Safety Notes

  • Always cook or dry fresh nettles before eating.
  • Avoid harvesting from roadsides or areas treated with pesticides.
  • People taking blood thinners, blood pressure medications, or diuretics should speak with a healthcare provider before consuming large amounts regularly.

Miso Soup

Miso (pronounced mee-so) is a delicious all purpose, high-protein seasoning which has played a major role in Japanese culture and cuisine for centuries.  It’s most often made from a combination of soybeans, cultured grain, and sea salt by a unique, double fermentation process, which was elevated to a state of fine craftsmanship in traditional Japan. Because of it’s popularity, miso now comes in non-soy versions.  My favorite brand is South River Miso. 
From South River: South River Miso is technically not a perishable food, and we are not required to put an expiration date on our product. Whether opened or unopened, South River Miso will keep almost indefinitely – even for years. Indeed, we have kept some miso for as long as 20 years without spoilage, even without refrigeration.
Miso cannot be added to boiling water as the good bacteria will die off.

Watermelon Peach Gazpacho

This vibrant, chilled summer soup combines the sweet juiciness of watermelon and peaches with the savory freshness of tomatoes, cucumbers, and bell peppers. Blended with a splash of lime juice or vinegar and a hint of spice from jalapeño or black pepper, it delivers a refreshing balance of sweet, tangy, and mildly spicy flavors—perfect for hot weather.
For added nutrition, garnishing with pumpkin seeds introduces a satisfying crunch along with magnesium, zinc, and plant-based protein, while blending in leafy greens such as chopped baby kale boosts the soup’s content of calcium, iron, and fiber. These additions elevate the mineral profile and make the dish more nutrient-dense, without sacrificing its light, refreshing character.
This no-cook soup is hydrating, heart-friendly, and rich in antioxidants, making it a delicious and nourishing appetizer or light meal.

Sardine Stew: High Calcium, High Protein

Sardines are an inexpensive source of protein and healthy fats. They are available fresh, frozen, and canned. Always eat your sardines with skin and bones to provide the most calcium. and protein.
Unlike other omega-3-rich fish, they are low in mercury and other containments. They are small in size and have a short life span which means they don’t have as long to accumulate mercury as larger fish like tuna. They also eat plankton which is relatively low in mercury.

Green Soup with Detoxing Qualities

Detoxing with foods typically refers to the practice of consuming specific foods or diets with the aim of eliminating toxins or harmful substances from the body. The concept is rooted in the idea that our bodies accumulate toxins from various sources, such as environmental pollutants, processed foods, and metabolic waste, and that certain foods can help facilitate the removal of these toxins. What can we eat that will help with this process? I love this Green Soup that has many of the following essential components.
 Vegetables: which are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber.
 Fiber: aids in digestion and promote regular bowel movements, which can help eliminate waste and toxins from the body.
 Antioxidants: leafy greens are believed to help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body, potentially reducing oxidative stress and damage.
 Herbs and Spices: incorporate herbs like cilantro and parsley, which have detoxifying properties.
