1 large carrot, sliced thin

In a large pot over medium heat, bring the broth and chard to a boil for 3-5 minutes.  Add the carrot and mushrooms.  When the carrot is tender, add the spinach.  Stir for about 5 seconds and it's done.

Add a tossed salad and some crusty bread with hummus for spreading or olive oil for dipping. This soup is good for you in SO MANY ways ! It's  super easy, doesn't take a lot of time to prepare or cook, and it's budget friendly as well.
