Serves 4
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 large onion, chopped

2 cups vegetable broth
1 bunch Swiss chard

How to Prepare
Add coconut oil to a large soup pot over medium heat. When the oil has melted, add onion and garlic. Stir for about 3 minutes. Then add zucchini, leek, fennel, and carrot. Stir for about 5 minutes, then add vegetable broth. Cover and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the vegetables are soft. Uncover and add the Swiss chard, basil, and chili flakes (optional). Stir well and cook on high heat for another five minutes to allow some of the liquid to evaporate. Stir in chopped parsley before serving.
