CBD Leek and Zucchini Soup
Serves 4 to 6 | Ready in 30 minutes
Make this hearty, healthy vegetable soup for an extra dose of greens. It comes together quickly—so as to not let any of the ingredients get too mushy or lose their vibrant green color. Add a little more texture and substance to it by stirring in cooked rice, quinoa, or chickpeas or serve with some crusty bread on the side.
