WHY THIS SOUP?

This soup is full of fibre which is important for digestion, is high in carbs which although many people may consider a bad thing, unrefined carbs are essential for the human body to function, including the brain! The garlic in the recipe will help ward off colds and coughs, and the broccoli and leek supply you with an array of vitamins and minerals so you will feel nourished, renewed, and most importantly in this weather…really, really warm J
