Even though the weather might still be warm outside, the transition into Fall is upon us, and with it comes the craving for cozy, nourishing meals. As the days get shorter and the evenings cool down, there’s nothing like a bowl of comforting soup to welcome the season! I’ve handpicked three delicious, nutritious soup recipes that capture the essence of Fall, even if it’s not quite sweater weather yet.
Here are the recipes to try:
- French Lentil and Mushroom Soup
This hearty soup is packed with earthy mushrooms and protein-rich lentils, making it both nourishing and flavorful. Mushrooms, in particular, are a great source of immune-boosting nutrients, such as beta-glucans and antioxidants, which help support your immune system as we head into the colder months. Their natural anti-inflammatory properties can also promote overall wellness.
