Winter Warmers SOUP
You can pass through Winter warmly by adding super foods and nature’s remedies directly into your food. For example, add a touch of honey, red lentils or quinoa flakes to your root vegetable soups. Or you could add or swap celeriac into your potato-based soups and finish with fresh corn and herbs for colour and texture. You can also swap sour cream for pot-set natural yoghurt, or, my favourite, swap cream for coconut milk and make a spicy soup full of flu fighting spices such as chilli, garlic and ginger.
The best way to enjoy soup is to keep them healthy and hearty so you feel full and warm this winter.
