I had an amazing opportunity earlier this year to visit Miraval Resort in Arizona.  While my time there was short, I had an experience I will never forget.  This is one of the most peaceful places I have ever been to and I am thankful for the people that I met when I was there, the classes I attended, and the opportunity to be in a beautiful setting that allowed me to sleep and read to my heart's content!

During my time there, I had the opportunity to meet Risa Groux.  Risa is a certified, holostic nutritionist with a practice in Newport Beach, California.  We actually met at the airport, shared dinner together, and saw each other throughout our stay at Miraval.  Risa is the healthiest person I have ever met and loves to cook.  I have been trying her recipes since I have been home and they are amazing!  Risa's recipes are Auto Immune Protocol, Paleo, Keto, and Newport Beach Cleanse friendly.  When you visit her site, you will see how opposite they are from my style of cooking, but I promise you, they are equally as delicious!

Today I decided to make the Creamy Mushroom Soup recipe from her site. I varied the recipe just a bit...

I used only organic, baby Portabella mushrooms, because I like those the best!  I sauteed them in ghee, onions, and garlic for a several minutes and then added a few splashes of Worcestershire Sauce and red chili flake before adding the bone broth.  If you are AIP Protocol, please do not include these additions.  Lastly, I used Beef, Jalepeno, and Sea Salt Epic Bone Broth (because that was available at my local Whole Foods) and cooked the soup about 20 minutes instead of 10.  I finished it with a bit of Italian parsley at the end, right after I finished blending it.  

The soup was delicious and I will definitely make this recipe again.  I plan to share some of what I made with some friends to spread the word about how delicious healthy cooking can be.

I hope that you enjoy Risa's recipe as much as I have.  Thanks #risagrouxnutrition!
