Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Lemony Tuscan Artichoke Soup
- In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 diced large yellow onion, 2 sliced celery stalks, and 2 sliced carrots. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
- Next, stir in 2 diced medium potatoes, 1 can of drained artichoke hearts, ½ cup of chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons of drained capers. Pour in 4 cups of chicken bone broth or vegetable broth, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
- Whisk 2 tablespoons of arrowroot powder with 1 cup of your choice of milk until smooth. Once the soup reaches a boil, slowly stir in the arrowroot-milk mixture. Keep stirring for about 5 minutes until the soup thickens slightly.
- Fold in 2 cups of freshly chopped kale or spinach into the delicious soup and squeeze in the juice of 1 lemon, then add the zest from the same lemon. Season generously with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls, garnishing each serving with freshly grated Parmesan cheese, optional lemon wedges, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. Serve immediately.

Notes
Using fresh vegetables enhances the flavors and avoids overripe or wilted produce for best results.
