{"0":"In a large pot heat olive oil over medium high heat and add onions along with a pinch of salt. Allow the onions to cook for about 4-5 minutes or until translucent.","2":"Stir in jalapeno, carrots, and garlic and cook another few minutes.

Combine all the veggies together before adding the broth and the tomatoes; turn the heat to high and bring to a boil.","4":"Once your soup is at a boil bring it down to a simmer and stir in zucchini and peas. Cook for just a couple more minutes before stirring in the spinach, cilantro and fresh lime juice. Adjust seasonings and serve yourself some soup!!","6":"Serving suggestion:","7":"I like to put a couple of ounces of pre-cooked shredded chicken at the bottom of my bowl before topping with the soup. Then I finish it off with some fresh avocado and an extra squish of limejuice SO GOOD!","9":"Makes a HUGE pot.","11":"Nutritional Analysis","12":"Serving Size: 1\/8 of the pot (without the addition of chicken or avocado) Calories: 99; Total Fat: 1.6g; Saturated Fat: 0.2g; Cholesterol: 0mg; Sodium: 119mg, Carbohydrate: 17.9g; Dietary Fiber: 4.8g; Sugars: 9.2g; Protein: 4.7g"}
