MW Simple Spinach Soup

Simple soups doesnt need that much chopping or many veggies, this spinach soup goes for frozen (finely chopped ) spinach cooked with onions and garlic in microwave oven and finally cooked in vegetable stock which tooks hardly 25minutes to cook up everything and enjoyed having this delicious green soup with spicy flax seed powder which i prepared today simply with red chillies and flax seeds to spice up these sort of simple soups...This soups tastes fantastic, simple to prepare and delicious to relish..


400grs Frozen spinach (defrosted)
1no Onion (chopped)
3nos Garlic cloves(crushed)
2tbsp Olive oil
2cups Vegetable stock water
2tbsp Flax seed powder+2nos dry red chillies
Salt
Pepper

Heat the olive oil in a microwave safe bowl for 5secs in high in microwave oven, add the chopped onions and crushed garlic cloves to the heated oil and cook for 5minutes in high..add the defrosted spinach and cook for 5 minutes again (stir twice in between)..finally add the vegetable stock with enough salt and pepper powder and cook everything for 10 minutes in microwave oven in medium...meanwhile grind the flax seeds and dry red chillies as bit coarse powder and keep aside..

Blend the soup with a hand blender and serve with spicy flax seed powder..enjoy!!

I am so tempted by this recipe mainly because I always have a bag of frozen spinach in my freezer that sits there for months on end.
