BelleStyle CookBook: SuperFood Cleanse Soup

We Love SuperFood.

So much in fact I’ve decided to create a CookBook from the recipes I cook for my family. When cooking, I try and sneak superfoods into the dishes so they are eating goodness like tumeric, maca, cinnamon, garlic to name just a few. They just don’t know why the dish is so hearty and amazing.

We all know us moms have no time to cook.  Myself included, so many of my dishes are ONE POT. Meaning you just add and add and add until the dish reaches completion and your family is happy.  Our SuperFood Cleanse Soup is one of these dishes. You don’t know why you love so much, but you do. And your body needs it and loves you for it.

The BelleStyle SuperFood Cookbook is in the works and will hopefully be realized soon! Until then, happy superfood eating and enjoy this soup with your favorite artisan bread, your body will thank you for it!
