Can we put the veggies in broth and make a soup ~ and have that twice a day with the packets? Or is it better to have a cucumber or other raw veggies to get our 2 cups???

you can do anything you want with the veggies soup is an excellent way, I very rarely eat my veggies raw. except for cucumbers of course. Kale chips, turnip chips and roasted broccoli and cauliflower are some of my favorites.

Thank you!

I have been really enjoying cutting up mushrooms and celery, sauteing them it a little low sodium chicken broth, and then adding the IP chicken soup to that. It is so filling that I can barely finish it. It's very tasty, too. I'm gonna try that with the mushroom and leek soups later this week.

I also like to thaw some uncut green beans or squash and saute them in a tsp. of olive oil and sea salt for a few minutes. Yum! Another idea is sliced jicama (not on the list but approved by my coach) and cucumbers with lime juice and sea salt. It's really good, too.

Hope this helps!

Sauteed mushrooms, and multi colored peppers with garlic, delicious!!
