Cilantro Detox Soup

January 4, 2020 by predominantlypaleo 8 Comments

 

Need to clear out the gunk? This Cilantro Detox Soup has all the cleansing properties of cilantro rolled into a beautiful, creamy soup. 


New year, new you? I mean let’s be a little more realistic. The evolution of betterment happens over a long a$$ time and to be honest, 365 days ain’t gonna do it. There are a lot of opinions out there on how to ring in a new year. Make resolutions, don’t make them, focus on health, don’t stigmatize food, set positive goals, don’t set goals and just roll with it. 

I wrote THIS Instagram post about how I do the new year. I like setting goals. I like refreshing my dreams and getting excited again about the days ahead. I get motivated by imagining what could be, rearranging my vision board, and becoming laser focused on those things most important to me. 

Every year I do 3 things before the ball drops:

1. I update my vision board
2. I write down my goals for the new year on a white board
3. I choose a word

My vision board has things I want to manifest and are lofty long term visions about my lifestyle, family, and health.

My whiteboard goals are very specific things I’d like to work towards in the specific year ahead. I always include a list for each of my businesses (Blog, Bread, Beautycounter) as well as goals centered around my physical and mental health.

For example, last year I worked to commit to drinking more water, making it to the beach more often, and meditating more to help my nervous system. Setting goals doesn’t mean I always hit them, but setting the intention means that I am more likely to put the work in, which is always a positive.

I also pick a word for the upcoming year. Last year it was “surrender”. I had been fighting so hard for so long and my body was tired. Surrendering didn’t mean giving into illness, it meant giving into change and shifting and taking time to breathe, especially while living in mold.

And every year, because we should ALL strive for this, in my opinion, I am to honor my body. To respect it and love it more and give it the things it needs to be optimal. My body has been through so much, I am forever grateful for it, and its ability to heal in between health challenges. But it can’t do that alone. I have to treat it with kindness and nutrition and extra hugs. 

I wrote this recipe for Cilantro Detox Soup because 1. it tastes really freakin’ good and 2. cilantro is a great chelator and liver protectant and 3. bone broth for the new year; yes and more please. 

There needs be no guilt in enjoying the holiday season with treats and parties. There needs be no punishment in the days that follow. But should you choose to give your body a little extra healing goodness, I got you. Also… HAPPY NEW DECADE, I can’t wait to see what abundance it brings!

    ive done paleo for years now ….. really strict for the first few years but lately ive done a little Keto diet also having results when i stick to it but i’m needing a boost or a new outlook on this way of eating/life way of fueling. basically i need a new motivation. I’m in a new season of life with all my kids grown and moved out so its just me and my husband and you would think its easier but its not, not sure why. If you would have any words of adivce or encouragement I would appreciate it.

      Do you think meal planning would help so that you have a vision for the upcoming week/month?

About

Jennifer is a wife and mother of 3 in pursuit of better health for her family.
After being gluten free for 4 years, and having a multitude of chronic health issues, she realized there was still too much processed “food” in her pantry and change was needed. Jennifer began feeding her family more meals from WHOLE foods and less from boxes. Her recipes are predominantly paleo, meaning they are free of grain, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar, but make allowances for a few treats and sweets. She believes food can be medicine when used appropriately and that a few changes now can equate to huge benefits later. Healthy food does not need to be flavorless and void of personality, which she aims to accomplish through her many recipes.
