Ingredients for 1 2 3 Healthy Soup

  • Soybeans
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • Broccoli
  • Red Potatoes
  • Green Cabbage
  • Salt And Pepper

How to Make 1 2 3 Healthy Soup

  1. Rinse 1 cup of dried soybeans and cook according to package directions in 4 cups of chicken stock. This usually takes about 45-60 minutes.
  2. Once the soybeans are cooked, add 2 medium potatoes (peeled and diced), 1 medium carrot (chopped), 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the pot. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  3. Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (in batches if necessary) and puree until smooth. Allow to cool slightly before blending to avoid hot liquid burns.
  4. Return the pureed soup to the pot and heat through. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
