Eat this Cabbage Detox Chicken Soup for Reduce Bloat and Shed Water Weight!

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsps coconut oil ghee, or avocado oil (high quality olive oil works too!)
  • 1/2 of a small green cabbage sliced very thinly
  • 6 stalks of celery chopped
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 1 cup frozen organic peas
  • 2 cups frozen or fresh organic green beans chopped in half if needed for bite size
  • 3 cloves of fresh garlic minced
  • 2 tsps grated fresh ginger
  • 5 cups homemade bone broth either chicken or turkey
  • 2 cups chopped or shredded leftover chicken or turkey
  • 1 bay leaf
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste (about 1/4 tsp each)
  • 1/2 a fresh lemon
  • 2 Tbsp fresh chopped parsley or cilantro

Instructions

  • Heat oil/ghee in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add cabbage, celery, and diced yellow onion then saute for about 4 minutes stirring often.
  • Stir in peas, green beans, garlic, and ginger then cook for another minute or so, until fragrant.
  • Add broth, bay leaf, and chicken or turkey meat then simmer until veggies are cooked through about 20 minutes.
  • Add freshly squeezed lemon juice of 1/2 a small lemon, then give everything a gentle stir.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley/cilantro and serve warm.
  • This soup lasts for about 4-5 days refrigerated, so I'll often make a double or triple batch for the whole week because as with most soups, it's even tastier the next day!
  • You can also freeze this soup for 6-8 weeks.
