Smoothie or Soup? I guess it is your choice! I'm not a huge smoothie drinker so when I was asked to review
100 Best Juices, Smoothies, and Healthy Snacks by Emily Von Euw, I immediately flipped to her savory section where smoothies are soups and soups are smoothies! It's all in one. The Creamy Broccoli with Garlic and Cilantro is a very strong-flavored thick soup made of good stuff -- broccoli, cilantro, oranges, almonds, and miso paste. It's a bit bitey because of all of the cilantro, but I love cilantro and, therefore, loved this soup. I think it could have used some more water though as mine was really thick! Just keep adding water until it feels right. Drink or slurp!
