Tips:
-
- This soup will keep in the refrigerator for a week making it a quick and easy daily meal throughout your detox program. You can also freeze it for several months.
- You can really make it your own with whichever vegetables you have in the refrigerator. I have added artichoke hearts, baby kale, green beans, red, yellow, and green peppers, etc.
- You can add shredded chicken/turkey for extra protein as well. Always choose organic, free-range when possible.
