This Wellness Soup Will Keep You Cozy And Healthy All Winter Long

Sami Allen

We’re heading into that time of year — yes, the time of festiveness and big family meals and presents, but also the time of illness. You can get the flu shot and keep hand sanitizer ready, but it’s just as important (if not more so) to keep your body properly nourished. Luckily, we have a soup recipe that will not only keep you healthy all season long but also taste awesome and take less than 30 minutes to make. What’s better than that? Oh, a soup that requires very few steps. And we’ve got you covered here, too. It’s basically SOUP-erman.

We swear that this soup will warm your body and soul from the inside out. Just throw everything into the pot after work and have a hot, steaming bowl of goodness awaiting you in a half hour. Sounds like heaven to us.
