It’s fall and soup season is in full effect! You don’t have to be feeling under the weather to prep a big batch of soup, although this soup works wonders if you are under the weather. This cozy soup has ingredients like garlic, turmeric, and ginger that all fight inflammation and warm your body from the inside out. Fall and winter are characterized by more cold and stagnant energy, which is why we like to lean on warming soups that make it easier on our digestive systems.
