Shiitake and Chard Detox Soup

December 15, 2016 by Rachel Carr Leave a Comment

This Detox Soup is a great tonic in the winter months-it’s chockful of healthy ingredients that will ground you, boost your immune system and supply you with an infusion of minerals and vitamins from the greens and sea vegetables. Have this soup for supper with some roasted sweet potatoes and you’ll have a perfectly healthy weeknight supper.

The kimchee, if you can get it, adds a spicy kick and a nutritional boost from the healthy ferment. Kick that cold to the curb!
