Soup season is here! Although I eat soups all year long, love them! But this is just the excuse to share my mom's recipe for this soup. She has been making it since I was a child and keeps preparing it as we are all grown up, but I had improve it with a great ingredient we all have heard of.. bone broth. This is super simple, easy and no need to buy a ton of fancy ingredients just to get a great nutritious meal together.
This week I got sick from eating an old ugly eggplant and spent all day with a stomach ache, skipped crossfit to take some rest, included plenty of water and electrocytes by adding sea salt to my warm water with lemon, that helped a lot to replenish the lost minerals.
Besides replenishing those minerals I went so easy with my stomach that day, steamed veggies and bone broth. After a long day at school, this was the best thing to come home too!
