Method
 

How to Make Green Detox Soup
  1. Chop the Veggies: Roughly chop the zucchini, green beans, and celery, keeping the celery pieces small to avoid stringiness.
  2. Boil the Vegetables: Place the chopped veggies in a saucepan with 4 cups of cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer.
  3. Simmer to Softness: Cook the vegetables partially covered for about 25 minutes, or until they’re soft and tender.
  4. Prepare Herbs & Ginger: Finely chop your chosen fresh herbs and mince the ginger.
  5. Blend the Soup: Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until it reaches a smooth consistency.
  6. Sauté the Spices: In a skillet, heat the ghee and sauté the cumin seeds and minced ginger until aromatic.
  7. Combine and Adjust: Transfer the sautéed spices into the blended soup, then add the fresh herbs and lemon juice. Stir and adjust seasoning as desired.
