Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cubed
- 1 cup carrots, sliced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1½ cups chopped tomatoes (about 2 fresh tomatoes)
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- Up to 2 cups water, added as needed
- 1 large kale leaf, chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the sweet potato, carrots, celery, and onion. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 5–7 minutes until vegetables begin to soften, stirring occasionally.
- Add garlic, chopped tomatoes, and smoked paprika. Cook for another minute, stirring frequently to release the flavors.
- Stir in the kidney beans and vegetable broth. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat and cook uncovered for 45 minutes. Stir occasionally and add water as needed to keep the soup at your desired consistency.
- Once the vegetables are tender and the broth is rich, stir in chopped kale and parsley. Cover the pot, turn off the heat, and let sit for 5 minutes to wilt the kale.
- Serve warm and enjoy your nourishing, hearty bowl of detox soup.
Notes
- Add shredded chicken for extra protein.
- Use broccoli instead of sweet potatoes.
- Swap in quinoa for the beans.
- Replace parsley with cilantro or basil.
- Add turmeric, ginger, rosemary, or oregano.
- Finish with lemon or lime juice for brightness.
