Move over juicing! This soup has lots of fiber and vitamins and is loaded with vegetable power. I created this soup with the intent to use some of the kale and broccoli greens I preserved last fall that have been in my freezer this winter. It’s been a favorite around our house, and with a nice loaf of bread and salad it becomes a meal.
My garden is full of greens thanks to plentiful sunshine this spring. I’ve got arugula going to seed! Its a race to keep the flowers trimmed back for leaf production. This salad is a nice accompaniment to grilled meats- in this case its Sockeye Salmon from the Kenai River last summer. This recipe was found in the New Alaskan Cookbook and is a modified version of Jens Nannestad’s recipe for Salmon with Arugula salsa. It’s a light dinner for a hot summer evening.

We are both born and raised in Alaska, land of the midnight sun and fishing at 2am. We love to find new ways to use fresh ingredients or put a modern spin on an old Alaskan classic. We hope you will enjoy tasting Alaska.
