#44 Detox Soup

  • Detox Soup, and a vitamin bomb 💣 I got the recipe from the @theglowingfridge • “Since this Cleansing Detox Soup doesn’t have rice, noodles, beans or legumes of any sort, it’s easily digestible for everyone due to the soft vegetable” theglowingfridge.com
    •
    INGREDIENTS
    1/4 cup water (or vegetable broth)
    1/2 of a red onion, diced
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    3 celery stalks, diced
    3 medium carrots, diced
    1 small head of broccoli, florets
    1 cup chopped tomatoes
    1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
    1 teaspoon turmeric (I used powdered)
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste (optional)
    fine-grain sea salt and black pepper, to taste
    6 cups water (or 4 cups vegetable broth + 2 cups water)
    2 cups kale, de-stemmed and torn into pieces
    1 cup purple cabbage, chopped
    juice from 1/2 of a small lemon (or a whole lemon, depending how much lemon flavor you prefer)
    INSTRUCTIONS
    In a large pot, add the water and turn on the heat to medium-high. After it’s hot, add the onion and garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the celery, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes and fresh ginger. Stir and cook for 3 minutes, adding in extra water or broth as needed (another 1/4 cup). Stir in the turmeric, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper plus salt and pepper to taste.
    Add the water or vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are soft. Add the kale, cabbage and lemon juice near the last 2-3 minutes of simmering.
    Enjoy!
