Ingredient Highlights
Broccoli belongs to a group of veggies known as cruciferous vegetables, and is a true miracle food believed to support immunity and bone health, maintain cholesterol levels that are already within a healthy range, and cleanse the body.
Coconut milk is made from the flesh of mature coconuts and is naturally sweet and creamy. It contains lauric acid, which has antimicrobial and anticancer properties and can help boost immune function.
Garlic is considered both a vegetable and an herb and is clinically proven to support the immune system. Did you know there are over 300 varieties of garlic grown around the world!
Collagen helps maintain the structure and integrity of skin, hair, nails, muscle tissue, bones, tendons, and more. Organixx Clean Sourced Collagens includes targeted nutrients such as zinc, vitamin C, and vitamin B6 which enhance the bioavailability and potency of collagen.
Red onions are a rich source of quercetin and anthocyanin, powerful antioxidants that protect the heart and lower inflammation and cancer risk.
Spinach is loaded with chlorophyll, which improves liver detoxification and digestion.
I make a similar recipe. At the end I add a stick of grassfed butter. Lots of good nutrition there plus needed calories. Really easy & so tasty.
This soup was great I also added a little ginger
That's a great idea, Judith! Some ginger will definitely enhance the flavor of this soup.
Thank you for letting us know how it went for you. Wishing you a lovely day!
