Directions
Sautee garlic and sunflower seeds in olive oil. Add half the broth, and the carrots, turn heat to low. While that's there, go chop your other veggies.
Veggies chopped? Ok, put in the rest of the broth and the 1/2 cup water. Throw in the radishes, asparagus, and spinach. Add the black bean (or the Amy's chili) and flaxseed meal.
Cut lemon into one or two wedges, remove seeds, squeeze juice into soup, and toss the rinds in too.

Cover and let the soup simmer on low heat for 35 or 40 minutes. When the carrots and radishes aren't crunchy anymore, your soup is ready to eat. Add salt and pepper to taste, if you wish.
