Fresh as springtime and simply delicious, this soup has it all giving body and mind the deep nourishment we all need. Inspired by the classic Green Protein Recipe, this version has lauki squash in it and baby bok choy leaves. This soup is easy on the tummy and takes minutes to make if you have paneer handy. If you plan on making your own fresh paneer just prior to making it , add on another 20 minutes to the prep time.
