~Add in zucchini, kale, broccoli, veggie broth and water.  Add enough water to cover the vegetables by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and then reduce down to a simmer and cook until broccoli is tender.
~Turn off the heat then stir in the garlic and ginger and salt. Cover with a lid and set until cool enough to handle.
~Working in batches, add the soup to a blender (An Emulsion Stick Blender works great if you have one.) along with the parsley, and cilantro.  Blend until creamy. Transfer the soup into a storage container or into a pot and repeat until you have blended all the soup.
*This soup will last up to 5 days stored in an airtight container in your fridge.
