Green Chile Soup / Cold Healer

Ingredients:

1 Cup Organic Broth (beef, chicken or vegetable)

1 Cup Hatch Green Chili Salsa (Tomatillo salsa works as well)

1 Cup Kale

1 Pepper Seeded and Diced (organic red or yellow)

1 Purple Onion diced

2 Cloves of minced garlic (chopped works)

1 Teaspoon Cumin

1 Teaspoon Ancho Chile Powder

1/2 Teaspoon of Celtic (mineral based) Sea Salt

2 Pounds Ground Meat (pork, organic ground beef or stew meat) Optional

1 Can of Organic Navy Beans

1/4 Cup Chopped Fresh Cilantro

Lime Wedges

1 to 2 Avocados Diced

To do:

Crock Pot: throw everything in except for the last 4 ingredients (beans, cilantro, lime or avocado). Cook on high for 6 hours or low for 8 hours.  The last 30 minutes throw in the beans. Top the soup with cilantro, squeeze of lime and diced avocado. Warm and antioxidant rich.  Perfect for cold season.

Notes: I usually give the ground meat a twirl in an olive oiled pan before sticking it in the crockpot.
