- For the best flavor and color, use fresh broccoli, spinach, and green peas.
- To keep the greens bright and full of nutrients, cook the spinach and peas just until tender.
- If using a regular blender, blend in small batches to prevent splattering. An immersion blender lets you blend right in the pot.
