Spinach Detox Soup

Besides of what we always heard about cabbage detox soup, we can choose to eat raw vegetables and organic fruits and another way of detoxification.

Now, i would like to share my spinach detox soup as detoxification. This is a creamless type, the taste is a bit different from cabbage, you might find this is a better soup compared to cabbage, if like "spinach" taste.

Ingredients

1 litre water
2 pounds spinach, chopped
2 tablespoon of olive oil
1 garlic, chopped
2 large onion, diced
2 large carrots, diced
1 bunch of celery
½ leek, diced
Few Bay leaves

How to cook?

1. Saute the garlic for 2 minutes in your olive oil
2. Adding in the onion, celery, leeks, and carrots to the pot, fry for 5 mins
3. Pour in water and add bay leaves.
4. Bring everything to a boil then simmer for an hour.
5. Set to cool for about an hour then remove bay leaves.
6. Add spinach.
7. Cook over medium heat until the spinach wilts.
8. Remove from immediately so that you won't overcook the spinach which will diminish the mineral in the vegetables.

In order to have adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals, you need to have a variety of fruits and vegetables to absorb the multi-vitamins and mineral. You may choose to have up to 3-day spinach detox diet with the combination of fruit juice and water. If you would like to have to up to 7-day, you may refer to my cabbage soup detox diet and replace the cabbage soup with spinach soup.
