Keto Zone Creamy Broccoli and Leek Soup

One of the primary problems people run in to on the Keto Zone diet is not consuming enough low-carb vegetables.

Veggies provide fiber which is essential for digestive health. Fiber helps to bulk the stool, scrub the digestive tract, and feed the healthy probiotic bacteria in the gut.

Often, ketogenic dieters do not always particularly enjoy eating vegetables which is why they struggle to incorporate enough of them in to their diet.

That is why we are sharing this easy and delicious creamy broccoli and leek soup recipe.

This recipe is a great way to get more healthy fiber in the diet along with important nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

1 organic leek, trimmed
2⁄3 lb organic broccoli, cut in to florets
2 cups organic bone broth
1 cup organic heavy whipping cream
½ cup fresh organic parsley, chopped

1/2 teaspoon sea salt
