Tomatoes harness critical micronutrients, phytochemicals, vitamins, and minerals to support many functions of the liver.

Onions have antimicrobial sulfur compounds that expel unfriendly pathogens from the liver.

Mushrooms contain hundreds of undiscovered phytochemical compounds, many of which are detoxifying for the liver.

Goulash

Ingredients:

• 1 cup diced onion
• 2 portobello mushrooms, roughly chopped
• 2 cups chopped red bell pepper
• 5 garlic cloves, finely minced
• 2 1/2 cup Healing Broth
• 1 1/2 cups or 15oz jarred diced tomatoes
• 1 1/2 cups diced gold potatoes
• 1 cup thinly sliced carrot
• 3 tbsp Hungarian paprika or 2 tbsp regular paprika and 1 tbsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tbsp coconut sugar
• 2 bay leaves
• 1/3 cup coconut or unsweetened almond milk
• Sea salt to taste, (optional)
• 2-3 tbsp finely chopped parsley, to serve

To serve:

Mashed potatoes or cauliflower rice or millet or gluten-free and corn-free pasta.

Directions:

Place a large ceramic non-stick pot on medium-high heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-8 minutes or until soft and browned. Add a bit of water if needed to prevent sticking.

Add the bell pepper and garlic to the pot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bell pepper starts to soften. Add the healing broth, tomatoes, potatoes, carrot, paprika, onion powder, coconut sugar, and bay leaves to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30-40 minutes or until the vegetables are soft and the sauce is thick. Take off the heat, stir in the coconut or almond milk and season with sea salt to taste (if using).

Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately with mashed potatoes, pasta, or millet.
