When life gets a little indulgent, I like to detox, cleanse, and start over. This soup is a fantastic way to kick start your health kick and detox your body.
Start off the base of the soup with a diced garlic clove, a sliced onion, and a splash of olive oil.
Add big slices of ginger, two bay leaves and a cup of chopped broccoli. Allow to simmer lightly, adding half cups of water when needed. Add in a cup of lentils and a tin of chickpeas.
Halving a lemon, add the juice of one half and slice the other half and add to soup. Allow to simmer for 20 minutes, until the lentils have cooked through.
Serve with all the trimmings, but avoid eating the bay leaves, lemon slices and sliced ginger - these are only meant for fuller flavour!
