Healing Turmeric Bone-Broth Vegetable Soup

Serves 6 · About 45 minutes

Why it’s on the menu: Collagen-rich bone broth supports the gut lining while fiber-rich vegetables feed the microbes that keep inflammation in check — comfort that works from the inside out.

Anti-Inflammatory Ingredients: turmeric, ginger, garlic, black pepper, bay, thyme; collagen-rich bone broth and fiber-rich vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 3 celery stalks, sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 ½ tsp ground turmeric
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 8 cups chicken bone broth
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 2 cups chopped kale
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, to garnish

Method

  1. Warm the olive oil over medium heat; cook the onion, carrots, and celery 5–6 minutes until softened.
  2. Stir in the garlic, ginger, turmeric, black pepper, thyme, and bay; cook 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the bone broth and bring to a gentle simmer for 20 minutes.
  4. Add the zucchini and simmer 5 minutes, then the kale for 3–4 minutes until wilted.
  5. Remove the bay leaves, season with sea salt, and garnish with parsley.

Low-carb swap: Skip any noodles; add extra zucchini or cauliflower for a lighter, lower-carb bowl.
