Nourishing Broccoli Soup

Jump to Recipe

As kids, we were always told to eat our broccoli but were probably not the biggest fan. You might change your mind after making this soup.

Some consider broccoli to be a superfood, part of the cruciferous family, this vegetable is low in calories, but contains a wealth of nutrients and antioxidants that support many aspects of human health. It’s high in fiber and rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which help eliminate free-radicals. The other ingredients in this soup provide vitamin C (parsley) and anti-inflammatory benefits (turmeric).
