This thick, warm, comforting soup is so delicious and so healthy, you will hardly believe it. It's a definite go-to for wintery evenings and is a great part of any detox diet. Stay away from packaged 'healthy' soups this winter - most of them are full of hidden dangers that I don't even want to get into. Soup is easy to make, so no excuses here! The focus of this soup is the spinach and broccoli (typically veggies that people don't like). Luckily, they are hidden and all you will notice are the amazing health benefits. They act as powerful antioxidants in the body, protecting the immune system in the toughest of times. High in folate, magnesium, calcium, iron, vitamin C...the list goes on and on. Warm up and nourish your body with this green veggie soup.
