Make it Your Own
I’m not a big spice person, so believe me when I say this is so good and isn’t overly spicy. However, if you’d rather, feel free to use sweet Italian sausage instead! You could also sub sweet potatoes if you’d like. The choice is yours! You can also add in additional veggies such as celery, zucchini and more, depending on what your favorites are!
Immune Boosting
I love to nourish my body as often as possible, while never ever compromising taste. It’s no secret that with cooler weather comes cold and flu season, and I like to do my best to prepare my body with mentioned nourishment all year long by making healthy and immune strengthening soups to warm up with.
An easy way to add powerful nutritional benefits to your soup is by making them with bone broth. You can make your own, which plenty of people do, but I typically don’t have time, so I opt for grabbing a high quality pre made bone broth. High quality bone broth can aid in your total-body wellness, which includes immunity, joint healthy, hair, skin and nails and even brain function.
