"Vegetable-Packed Paleo Energy Soup" is a hearty and flavorful soup that's perfect for a quick and easy meal. It's made with a variety of vegetables, including carrots, celery, green beans, and broccoli, that are simmered in a flavorful broth. The soup is also paleo-friendly, meaning that it's free of grains, dairy, and processed foods.
This soup is inspired by the classic minestrone soup, but it's been updated with a few modern twists. For starters, I've used a variety of vegetables that are all packed with nutrients. I've also used a flavorful broth made from chicken or vegetables, and I've added a touch of olive oil for richness. The result is a soup that's both hearty and healthy, and it's perfect for a quick and easy meal.
