We call this “Detox Soup” because it works so well to make us feel nourished and clean when we’ve been off-program or had holiday meals which were a culinary investment, so to speak. If we celebrated hard, we fix this soup and keep it on hand for a few days, sipping it for both lunch and dinner. We also have made swaps with the curry powder. We used BBQ seasoning once when we had it, which was also pretty good. We also used Penzey’s Greek Seasoning Once, which was very good, as well– but always be sure to check for low-sodium blends!
