Harriet Emily has picked her top 5 superfood soups to keep you healthy, warm and well fed!
We all love that great feeling you get after you’ve eaten something healthy, especially as you know you’ve put the effort into taking care of your body. Soups are one of my favourite ways to get a real health boost. You can make them full of delicious, vitamin-rich vegetables that we all need, especially now in cold and flu season. But, when you need something more, and a typical bowl of vegetable soup just won’t do, you can’t beat these. When you need that extra kick, these five soup ingredients are guaranteed to keep your immune system on top form. I’ve also linked a recipe in for each, to inspire you to get cooking with these mighty ingredients.
This healing soup recipe is full of heat, and guaranteed to burn away any cold or flu symptoms you may be experiencing at this time. In my opinion, we don’t pay enough attention to this wonderful ingredient. Lemongrass is a natural source of vitamin A, B and C, folate, magnesium, zinc, calcium, and iron. Not only is it rich in vital nutrients, but it’s also high in antioxidants, so makes a great ingredient for those of you wanting to have a detox.
