Daniel Fast








Here are some recipes Sherry has used during the Daniel Fast. Hope it helps you if you decide to join us with taking part in the 21 Day Daniel Fast. Enjoy!

Potato Leek Soup

2 cans vegetable broth
1 bunch leeks (cut off ends)
Chop and rinse
1 large onion (chopped)
8-10 small/medium potatoes (peeled & cubed)
Pepper, garlic powder, sea salt to taste
1 cup of soymilk

Boil chopped leeks, potatoes, onion and pepper, garlic powder and salt in vegetable broth until leeks are soft. Turn off heat and add soymilk. Put entire mixture thru food processor or if you do not have one, you can mash up the potatoes while still in soup pot and put it in the blender and puree. If you use a blender, you will need to put the soup into it in small amounts.
