  • salt to taste
  • 3 Tbsp arrowroot powder + 3 Tbsp water
  • 6 eggs

    • Instructions

    1. Dice onions and celery. Melt butter substitute over medium heat.
    2. Saute onions & celery over low heat until they turn soft. Stir in broth.
    3. Add ginger, tamari sauce, and sesame oil. Bring to a boil. Add salt to taste

      This recipe calls for butter but if you are following strict paleo isn’t butter prohibited?
