Give your digestive system a reset and ladle up this soup for dinner. Sweet potatoes simmer in a creamy, fragrant turmeric broth with a boost of healthy apple cider vinegar!
This easy, one-pot dinner is great for weeknights, as it comes together quickly and with minimal prep. You also don’t need any special ingredients. Most of them are Paleo staples that you can find right in your pantry, especially if you grocery shop using our official Paleo Diet shopping list.
More importantly, this soup is also great for your gut health. It's filled with fiber from sweet potatoes, anti-inflammatory properties from the turmeric, and bloat-busting probiotics from the vinegar. Plus, a base of chicken stock (homemade bone broth is best) adds a boost of gut-healing collagen, while dairy-free coconut milk can help maintain healthy gut flora.
Start by cooking diced sweet potatoes with chopped onions in a large Dutch oven. Once softened, add ginger and garlic and stir until fragrant, then add chicken stock along with the turmeric and black pepper. Remember, the black pepper helps increase the absorption of the anti-inflammatory turmeric, so don’t forget to add it.
Simmer your soup until the sweet potatoes are tender, then add the coconut milk, apple cider vinegar, and kale. Turn off the heat and let the hot broth cook the kale until just wilted, then serve right away with fresh chopped cilantro.
Tips:
- You can add other gut-boosting vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, or cauliflower.
- Use apple cider vinegar with “The Mother” for the most probiotics.
