Pistachio Free Maple & Apple Cider Pot Roast Soup
This is the kind of pot roast that fills your whole kitchen with the smell of something deeply good — sweet, savory, and just a little earthy from the fresh herbs. Beef chuck gets seared until it's properly browned, then slow-simmered in bone broth with apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and coconut aminos until it practically falls apart on its own. Carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes go in partway through so they stay tender without turning to mush, soaking up every bit of that rich, lightly spiced broth. A touch of turmeric and ginger gives the whole pot a subtle warmth that makes this feel like more than just a weeknight soup. Every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free from tree nuts, so there's no label-checking or substitution stress — just a clean, satisfying bowl from start to finish. A handful of fresh parsley on top at the end adds a bright finish that cuts through the richness beautifully.

- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes

Instructions
- 1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels and season all over with 1 tsp of the salt.
- 2
Heat the coconut oil in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, add the beef in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side, until deeply browned on at least two sides. Transfer the seared beef to a plate and set aside.
