PURPLE PASSION SOUP! CAULIFLOWER AND POTATO SOUP
Made with purple potatoes, purple cauliflower, red onion, red beets and lots of garlic. No food coloring needed because the beets will add vibrant color to the soup making it wonderful for Valentines day. Heart warming and Heart healthy. A really good for you soup! I used Kraft Philadelphia Cooking Creme a new pourable product that comes in a 10 ounce tub. It is already seasoned. There are four to pick from so go with what your family enjoys. The dark pigments responsible for the purplish tones are called anthocyanins, a type of phytonutrient, or plant compound, hailed for its potential disease-fighting benefits from heart disease to cancer. Some evidence indicates these purple pigments might protect our brains as we age. Containing lutein, zeaxanthin, resveratrol, vitamin C, fiber, flavonoids, ellagic acid, quercetin. Then red beets are good source of phytonutrients called betalains. Providing antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxification support. An excellent source of hearth-healthy folate and a very good source of the antioxidant manganese and heart-healthy potassium. Have digestive-supportive dietary fiber, free radical scavenging vitamin C and copper, bone-healthy magnesium, and energy-producing iron and phosphorus. Purple carrots, purple cabbage would be a wonderful addition to this. Making it that much more healthy.
