Purple Kumara Soup
Purple kumara is pretty special. I buy it whenever I see it available, and I just love cooking with it. It's filled with flavour, loaded with nutrients and brings its beautiful depth of colour to the meals I cook. This soup is flavoured with garlic, ginger, chili and a hint of orange. The Clean Lean Protein increases the protein content, so you can feel even more satisfied and make sure you are getting this essential nutrient throughout the day.
