Ingredients

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Stir in broccoli florets and diced zucchini. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add cumin, coriander, and smoked paprika. Stir to coat the vegetables.
Pour in the almond milk and coconut milk. Bring to a gentle simmer. Add the spinach leaves and cook until all vegetables are very tender, 8-10 minutes.
Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and add lemon juice and basil leaves.
Using an immersion blender (or working in batches with a standard blender), blend the soup until silky smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Ladle into bowls and garnish with hemp seeds and extra basil leaves.
