Hot Tomato Soup 2 servings 3 large garlic cloves 3 oz shallots, peeled sliced 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 (14 1/2-ounce) can stewed tomatoes, undrained 1 1/2 cups chicken broth 1/2 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar 1/4 tsp salt Dash of freshly ground red pepper 2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped Peel and crush garlic and set aside. Leaving crushed or minced garlic for at least 5-10 minutes after crushing helps maximize its health-protective effects. While health-promoting compounds are forming in crushed garlic, combine shallots, tomatoes, chicken broth, and apple cider vinegar in a blender or food processor and process until smooth. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and chili powder, and cook about 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add tomato mixture, and bring to a boil. Turn off heat and stir in basil. Serve hot. Wholesome Winter Pea and Watercress Soup (Dairy-Free) 6 servings 1 large onion, chopped 1 garlic clove 6 cups vegetable or chicken stock 1 large potato 30 oz frozen peas 3 oz watercress Salt and pepper, to taste Peel and crush garlic and set aside. Leaving crushed or minced garlic for at least 5-10 minutes after crushing helps maximize its health-protective effects. While health-promoting compounds are forming in crushed garlic, peel and dice potato and chop onion. Sweat onion and garlic in 2-3 tablespoons of chicken or vegetable stock. Add potato chunks and pour in rest of stock. Bring to boil and simmer for 15 minutes or until potato is just cooked. Add frozen peas and simmer for 3 minutes. Add watercress and simmer for another minute. Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes. Process with a hand held blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Nourishing Nettle Soup 4 servings Wash nettle and spinach thoroughly. Drain and chop coarsely. 6 oz young nettle tips 4 oz fresh spinach 2 tbsp olive oil 2 shallots, chopped 2 cups water 2 cups skimmed organic milk 3 tbsp flour Dash of ground white pepper Dash of ground nutmeg Salt to taste Yoghurt containing probiotic bacteria, for garnish Heat olive oil and sauté onion in a large saucepan until golden brown. Add water, nettle, and spinach, and bring to a boil. Cook until nettle and spinach are tender. Blend with a hand held blender until smooth. Whisk cold milk and flour together in a small bowl. Pour into saucepan and whisk to blend thoroughly. Bring to a boil and simmer for a few minutes, until thickened. Season with salt, white pepper, and nutmeg. Remove from heat. Pour soup into serving bowls and garnish with a swirl of yoghurt. Serve. Note: As nettles are rich in nitrates, they should not be consumed by young children, people with gout, or other people with a condition that requires a low-nitrate diet. Did you know? Nitrates, inorganic compounds that can cause health problems if they turn into nitrites in the body, accumulate naturally in many plants including nettle and spinach. However, you can minimize the nitrate content of your nettle dishes by only consuming young nettle shoots and by avoiding compost areas and outhouses when picking nettles. You can also reduce the odds of nitrates turning into nitrites by consuming a drink rich in vitamin C and/or E along with your nettle dish these vitamins are highly effective at preventing the conversion of nitrates into nitrites. Lentil Chili Soup Serves 4 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1 large yellow onion, sliced 2 carrots, diced 2 cloves garlic 1/2 tsp chili powder 1 tsp cumin 1 tsp dried oregano 1 cup red lentils 28 oz (420g) canned tomatoes 6 cups vegetable stock 1 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground Peel and crush garlic and set aside. Leaving crushed or minced garlic for at least 5-10 minutes after crushing will maximize its health promoting effects. While health-promoting compounds are forming in crushed garlic, heat olive oil in a large nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add stock, lentils, carrots, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper, and bring to boil. Cover pot and let simmer for 25 minutes over medium heat. Add garlic and let simmer for another 5 minutes. Spoon soup into individuals bowls and serve hot.
Chicken and Barley Soup 8 servings 1 1/2 pounds skinless chicken breast 9 cups chicken broth 1 cup carrots, diced 1/2 cup organic celery, finely chopped 1/2 cup barley, cooked 1/4 cup yellow onion, sliced 1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves, cut into strips Salt and pepper, to taste Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.

Add carrots, celery, and onion and simmer for another 15 minutes. Add spinach and barley. Heat through and season with salt and pepper. Chicken Soup with Rice and Green Peas 6 servings 4 cups fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth 1 small onion, chopped 1 1/2 cup green peas 2 small ribs organic celery, diced 2 small carrots, sliced 1/2 cup short grain brown rice, washed 2 cups skinless, organic chicken, cooked and diced Soak rice in cold water from 15 minutes to one hour. This will reduce cooking time. Bring broth to a boil in a large saucepan. Add presoaked rice and vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender. Add cooked chicken and simmer for 3-4 minutes. Did you know? Together with conventionally grown bell peppers, conventionally grown celery is up there at the top of the list of vegetables that contain the highest levels of contaminants, including neurotoxic pesticides and chlorothalonil (a potential carcinogen)). That is why it is highly advisable to opt for organically grown produce when buying celery.

Basic Vegetable Stock Recipe (Easy) Yields: 4 cups Vegetable stock is an excellent substitute for chicken stock and a great base for vegetarian and non-vegetarian soups, stews and sauces. This vegetable stock is super easy to make, and it is a great way to use up any extra onions, carrots, and celery you may have in your fridge. The stock can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. 2 large onions, peeled and quartered 2 carrots, peeled (or scrubbed) and sliced 3 celery stalks (preferably organic), sliced 4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed 10 peppercorns 2 fresh parsley sprigs 1 bay leaf Place the vegetables and other ingredients in a large stockpot. Pour enough cold water into the stockpot to completely immerse the vegetables. Bring the stock to a boil over high heat. Once the water has begun to boil, turn the stove down to low. Allow the stock to simmer for an hour. Place a fine mesh sieve over a large heat-resistant bowl and strain your stock, pressing on the vegetables. Cool the liquid by placing the bowl inside a larger bowl filled with ice water. Stir often until cool. Transfer the cooled stock to airtight containers. You can refrigerate the stock for up to 2 days or freeze it for up to 2 months.
