Hearty Flu-Fighting Vegan Soup To Warm You Up
Looking for an easy vegan soup recipe to comfort you on days you aren’t your usual bright self? Here’s a simple recipe to sort this out for you.
Earlier this week, I got the flu and it wasn’t pretty. I knew that in tandem with medicine, I could turn to natural remedies to help speed up my recovery time. In addition to drinking absurd amounts of tea, getting a lot of sleep and dousing my house in eucalyptus, I also made a simple family recipe soup to get my body feeling better from the inside. Although the last thing you want to do is eat while you’re sick, it does help in the long-run. The recipe features garlic and ginger which are awesome for fighting the flu. This soup recipe stayed down and it helped my body get the nutrients it needed. Here is how you can make a simple yet hearty flu-fighting vegan soup, even when you’re already sick.

- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/4 inch ginger
- 2 leaves fresh or dried basil

*Did you know that peeling your carrots gives them a much better taste and can get rid of any dirt or bacteria you missed while washing?

- Add the broth and water to the pot and stir.
