Soul Warmer Soup

Delicious soup packed with healthy organic vegetables and my homemade organic Moroccan spice mix, including Turmeric, Ginger, and 14 other spices.

A slice of whole-grain bread is a perfect addition to this. If you have fresh veggies in your fridge and spices in your pantry, you can put something healthy and delicious together pretty quickly.

As you are visiting this blog, chances are likely that you like to prepare your own food. You already know that caring about the quality of the food you eat pays out in the long run.

The more you get used to a routine of adding more and more plant-based quality foods to your daily routine – the less processed food you will want on your plate.

This soup does not only taste amazing – it is packed with healthy nutrients and antioxidants. And it can easily be prepared as a delicious stew just by adding 2 cans of chickpeas.

By adding 2 cans of chickpeas 5 minutes after adding the potatoes, the soup turns into an even more nutritious stew.

Turmeric and ginger are a powerful team and used around the world as seasoning and natural remedies.

Homegrown Turmeric and Ginger

Both are being said to help our bodies fight inflammations and pain, and are essential ingredients in the Moroccan spice mix Ras el Hanout. The mix also contains black cumin seeds, which are very popular in the oriental cuisine for thousands of years, where it is also called “remedy for everything but death”.

Another ingredient is cardamom, which is told to be beneficial for the digestive system. All 16 ingredients are put together to enhance the taste of food and to benefit the body.  If you ever think about creating your own mix, make sure to get high quality, and certified organic ingredients from a trusted source.
