Detoxifying Cauliflower Kale Soup

Detoxifying is essential for women to get rid of excess toxins and hormones that can disrupt mood, weight and hormone balance. Adding this high-fiber, high phytoestrogen soup to your weekly routine is a delicious way to naturally support detoxification.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 onion (diced)

  • 2 stalks celery (diced)

  • 2 carrot (medium, diced)

  • 4 garlic (cloves, minced)

  • 1 small head cauliflower (chopped into florets)

  • 4 cups kale leaves (chopped)

  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary (alt: dried)

  • 6 cups vegetable broth (I like Brodo seaweed mushroom broth (frozen) or Kettle + Fire premium vegetable broth (boxed))

  • 2 cups lentils (cooked)

  • 1 tsp sea Salt & black pepper (to taste)

  • 2 tbsps lemon juice (Juice from a whole lemon)

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the onion, celery, and carrots. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until veggies are softened. Add the garlic and rosemary and cook for 2-3 more minutes.

  2. Add the cauliflower, kale, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer. Let simmer for 20 minutes.

  3. Stir in the cooked lentils and season to taste with sea salt and black pepper. Add lemon juice. Divide between bowls. Enjoy!

Notes: Feel free to make this soup SUPER easy by using frozen veggies + precooked legumes.

Make Less Starchy/Higher Protein: To make less starchy, swap in frozen organic shelled edamame for the lentils.
