Detox soup with beetroot, chia seeds and carrots
Beetroot is one of the superstars among detox foods: it is rich in vitamins, iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. It also contains a wealth of nutrients that have cleansing and detoxifying effects.
With garlic, spring onion and spicy cream cheese, the soup is a wonderfully aromatic treat.
Roasted chia seeds provide the crunchy effect and also supply us with valuable Omega-3.
