This healing, cleansing blended vegetable soup recipe helps to alkalize the body and bring it back into balance, especially if you've been eating too much sugar and/or processed foods. Add collagen powder for a protein boost without altering the flavor or texture.
Place all ingredients (except coconut oil) in a large pot and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes.⠀
Puree soup and coconut oil in a blender in batches (covered!).
Eat warm and season with salt and pepper, if desired.⠀
Notes
Use caution and make sure to vent the blender lid and cover with a towel and start blending on low speed to prevent the hot soup from splattering.
Make sure your blender container is heat resistant.
An immersion blender can be used during the blending step.
Feel free to spice this soup up with your spices of choice: garlic can help detox, fresh ginger and/or turmeric added before blending can boost the anti-inflammatory properties.
