kfedup:

This soup is slightly spicy, but not too overpowering, and very flavorful, with a great mix of nutrient-dense vegetables with detoxifying properties. If you want to kick up the heat, add a dash of cayenne to your bowl, or hot red pepper flakes. My family doesn’t enjoy that, so I didn’t put it in the pot. You better believe I’ll be burning my lips off with a shake of my homemade pepper flakes. It should really help this hideous breathing situation I’ve got going on right now. 

kfedup’s Detox Soup
Ingredients (try for organic to avoid adding chemicals during detox):
1-2 Tbsp sunflower oil
1 medium-large onion, sliced
1 large or 2 small heads garlic, minced
1/4 cup minced fresh garlic
5 carrots, sliced
3 stalks celery, sliced
2 cups shredded cabbage
1 cup sliced fresh daikon
1 cup sliced celeraic
1-2 cups kale, small chop
1/2 cup dried shittake mushrooms, soaked & sliced
2 Tbsp fresh cracked black pepper
1-2 tsp good sea salt
2 Tbsp tamari or shoyu
3-4 Tbsp Bragg’s Liquid Amino’s
8-10 cups water

Method:
In stockpot heat oil over medium heat, add onion and sauté 3-4 minutes until soft and beginning to turn translucent, add cabbage and carrots and continue to sauté 5 minutes, then add garlic and cracked pepper, and cook for 1 minute. 

Add the water and remaining ingredients except for Tamari & Bragg’s. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to simmer until veggies are tender, about 7-10 minutes. Add Bragg’s and Amino’s, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. I’m making this less salty for maximum nutrient uptake. 

The salad includes: a mix of locally grown organic greens (spinach, lettuce, arugula, mustard, mizuna, and pea shoots), cucumber, daikon, carrot, red cabbage, shredded kale, tomato, fuji apple, and avacado. It will be dressed with a garlic-lemon cashew cream and a few splashes of champaigne vinegar. 

No more messing around, I don’t care how exhausted I feel, I need to get back to eating fresh vegetables in massive quantities, with a tiny bit of legumes, nuts, seeds, pastured meats, eggs, and cheese added in on occasion. Enough with the Mauddamn chicken soup, already. I will heal this body and get it to where this doesn’t happen again. I’ll probably blab about the process here ad nauseum. Unfollow at will. Or follow along and give my recipes a try, and tell me what you think. That would be super cool.
