Broccoli has a strong, positive impact on our body’s detoxification system, it is also a rich source of fiber, Vitamin C, beta carotene, folate, as well as a variety of other important nutrients. Broccoli has fantastic anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects in our bodies, it is low carbohydrate and helps support a healthy digestive system. Basil has been shown to have some great antibacterial properties. This soup is very low in carbohydrates, high in fibre and a great source of nutrients.

500g broccoli, chopped
500g cauliflower, chopped
Bunch basil, including stems
1.5L Chicken Bone Broth (use veggie stock if you are vegan or vegetarian)

Pop everything except the basil and avocado in your slow cooker or a big pot and let it simmer for a few hours until the veggies are nice and soft.
