Asian Detox Soup

This soup is full of nourishing, healthy vegetables as well as other healthy spices and can easily be tailored for both vegetarians or meat lovers!

In the new year, like most, I am more conscious of my health and what I am putting into my body. I like to start fresh in January and this soup just feels like a fresh start!

asian detox soup recipe

This soup is full of nourishing, healthy vegetables as well as other healthy spices and the noodles help keep you satisfied so you're not running back into the kitchen for a snack. The shitake mushrooms are very meaty, and even though I do eat meat, the addition of the shitake mushrooms doesn't make me crave meat at all. If the thought of a vegetarian meal doesn't interest you, thinly sliced beef or chicken or even shrimp will work beautify in this soup.

Asian Detox Noodle Soup Recipe

This soup contains both ginger and turmeric which is loaded with antioxidants. Turmeric has also been known to reduce the risk of cancer - who doesn't want that!?! But best of all, it tastes amazing!

    Roasted Veggie Pasta

    This is actually one of my favourite summer pastas to make. It's quick and easy. Even better, it's full of flavour without being too heavy.

    roasted veggie pasta

    I love the flavour of the roasted broccoli - it has a different kind of sweetness to it that you don't get from steaming it. And the roasted chickpeas adds a bit more texture to this pasta dish.  Nobody wants mushy chickpeas in their pasta. 

    vegetable pasta

    This is the type of summer pasta you can make this in big batches for any sort of summer get-togethers. 

    I personally like smaller pasta shapes for this recipe, but honestly, you can use whatever you have.
