Step 1

Chop off the very bottom of the stem from your mushrooms and discard. Separate stems from tops and slice tops and remaining stem if necessary, into large pieces. You will only discard the very bottom of the stems, not the full stems as they contain many nutritional benefits!

Step 2

Heat up coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 3

Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes or until translucent.

Step 4

Add in garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 5

Add in celery and mushrooms and saute for about 10 minutes or until mushrooms have wilted.

Step 6

Add in spices (including ginger, if using) and water and bring to a boil.

Step 7

Then let simmer, covered for 1 hour or as long as you want (the longer you leave, the better!)

Step 8

Add bok choy and kale in the last 10 minutes of cooking to wilt.

Step 9

Serve warm or store for up to 1 week in the refrigerator.
