Nettle Soup
Last spring, Dr. Cowan and his wife harvested lots of nettles from a friend's field and froze some to use throughout the winter. Today, they made a batch of nettle soup with Dr. Cowan's Garden Leek Powder to welcome spring once again. If you have access to a patch of stinging nettles this spring, harvest as much as you can to turn into tea or soup. You can blanch some and freeze as well. Nettles are packed with minerals and other nutrients that can help your body with a gentle spring detox.
