Cleansing Soup

IntoFit | January 13th, 2009 | Recipes and Meal Ideas | 4 Comments »

Alright, I know I’m the one who decided to go on a cleanse. But I made this soup last week and it was so delicious. I’m not kidding you! I will make this even after I’m done!


Green Soup
  • 10 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 leeks, diced  (the white part)
  • 3 garlic cloves, mashed
  • 2 small Broccoli heads, cut into pieces
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 2 zucchini’s, cut into chunks
  • 1 head of celery, cut into pieces
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  1. In a pot on medium, sauté leeks and garlic until leeks are cooked through.
  2. Add all the other vegetables and toss.
  3. Fill your pot so that your chicken stock covers the vegetables.
  4. Bring to a boil. If you want a thick soup: simmer here for 45 minutes.
  • If you want a thin soup: add 3 more cups of stock and simmer for 45 minutes.
Blend well with a hand blender (celery can be stringy). Serve with one tablespoon of parmesan cheese!

    This is my kind of soup! I will make it with Veggie stock. And I am a big fan of using a tablespoon of parmesan to give soups that little extra salty something :)

    Thanks for the recipe!
