Fat Burning Soup -- Great for the Flu Too! (Dairy-Free) | Low-Carb, So Simple -- gluten-free, sugar-free recipes with 5 ingredients or less Low-Carb, So Simple

By Bailey1_

This easy soup is a great option if you have made some New Year’s resolutions and want to lose some weight. On the other hand, if you are suffering from the flu or happen to be otherwise under the weather, this soup is quick to fix, it gives immediate relief and helps you recover sooner.


Home-made bone stock is the best. Try to get bones from grass-fed beef. Be sure to add a tablespoon or two of vinegar to the ingredients before you cook them. Vinegar helps release the gelatin and other important nutrients from the bones and ligaments.

Ingredients

• 4 cups = 960 ml chicken stock OR veal stock OR even better: bone stock
• 1/3 cup = 80 ml dried, organic soup vegetables
• 2 tablespoons melted organic extra virgin coconut oil
• 1 pinch (or to taste) organic cayenne pepper
• unrefined sea salt to taste
• What you should notice about the veggies: Just be sure that the soup vegetable mix doesn’t contain potato, beans, peas or other high-carb veggies. Neither should it contain anything additional, like starch or food additives. Herbs are perfect, though.
• I’ve used bone stock and vegetable mix consisting of onion, carrot, turnip, leek and parsley.
