Detox Soup

I call this soup detox soup because it’s basically a super clean and delicious vegetable soup. I have made this soup for years and it’s always good when you need a good healthy and hearty meal that will help you feel good.

I’m not into quick weight loss fixes but rather I believe in a good balanced diet and exercise routine. That being said, this soup is a great way to help reset your body or get rid of any junk food bloating. If you eat this soup for a week you will notice a difference in your body and it will reset your system and calm your, for a lack of a better term, guts.

The leftovers are good for 5-7 days and it can be frozen then reheated.

This soup is naturally delicious! Packed with vitamins, fiber and lots of great health benefits. You can add lentils or noodles if you want some added protein or carbohydrates.
