The purple cabbage and carrots add color and help to fill you up. While the lemon, turmeric and ginger add a nice zing and help to boost your immune system.
Turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, a big-time immunity booster. Ginger helps aid digestion and can improve the absorption of essential nutrients.
TIPS AND TRICKS FOR VEGETABLE SOUP:
And finally, the spices and fresh herbs tie the flavors together.
To make this a complete meal, you can serve the soup as a side with a lean protein (such as chicken, turkey, or fish).
Or if you want to bulk it up even more, add the protein, beans or low carb noodles to the soup for a whole meal!
