The month of May usually brings warm, sunny days and pleasant, quiet nights. In other words, May is the ideal month to spend outside – the temperature is normally not too cold nor too hot. However, this year May has surprised us quite a bit. Instead of the spring we were hoping for, gloomy days accompanied by rain and wind are on the forecast almost daily. Playing outside is almost impossible since the benches, parks and swings are constantly wet and even a walk does not sound too inviting. Since evidently the beginning of spring has been delayed, we continue to spend time in our cozy homes with friends and loved ones. During these cherished moments, food is inevitable, especially warm soup to start off a family meal.
Today we have prepared a delicious recipe for this yucky weather – broccoli and baby spinach soup. So creamy and delicious, even those who do not like broccoli will be sure to have a plate! Warm yourself up, enjoy family moments and wait for spring to come knocking!
