We’re essentially in full swing of flu season around this time of year, so immunity is at the top of my mind for sure. I needed a quick reset after just weeks of eating whatever I wanted, catching a cold, and just feeling under the weather and un-energized. So I turned to the answer for most things in life: SOUP. A big bowl of soup can be as healing as a huge, and as nourishing as…umm…well…a bowl of soup. I decided to mock up something that I know would make me feel good through my own diet, but also through this cold and flu season that we’re entering. This immune-boosting vegetable soup, was just the answer. I even used bone broth for the first time ever! And I liked it! And I hope you do, too!
