Vegan Cream of Kale and Spinach Soup

Ingredients:
Raw, unadulterated almonds
Salt
Garlic
Miso (of choice)
Olive oil (optional)
Kale
Spinach
Mushrooms (optional)
Pure water

Grind one handful of almonds with 2 large pinches salt in blender until fine powder forms.
Add 1 clove of garlic and 1 tablespoon miso of choice to blender.  (Also can add 1 tablespoon olive oil.)

Steam 5 leaves of kale and 2 handfuls of spinach until wilted but not completely soggy. (5-8 mins or so.)

Add kale, spinach, and steaming water (about 2 cups) to blender.  Blend.

Optional:  Steam 4 chopped button mushrooms.  Add to blended soup.  Blend only for a moment.

Add salt and pepper to taste.  Serve warm and delicious.  A very sattvic meal (minus the garlic which is rajastic)! Also does not aggravate vata, pitta, or kapha!

An original recipe!

Enjoy!
