This soup is filled with healing ingredients that will help you fight colds or flu. It’s warming, it’s delicious and it’s the perfect bowl of comfort food for when you are feeling under the weather. To make this soul-soothing soup (that also happens to be vegan), I used a mixture of spices, vegetables and herbs that are known for their antioxidant, antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. And the combination of all these wonderful herbs and vegetables tastes pretty damn good. What are you going to find in this immunity-boosting soup? Onions: can help you fight respiratory infections. Onions are antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and can strengthen your immune system. Garlic: can help you fight colds and infections. Has immune boosting, antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal properties. Ginger: can help you fight inflammation, fungal and bacterial infections. Turmeric: has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. Celery: is anti-inflammatory and has antimicrobial properties that can help you fight infections. Carrots: have immune-enhancing antioxidants like vitamin C and beta-carotene. Thyme: helps fight sore throats. Has antimicrobial properties and can help you treat coughs, respiratory issues and bronchitis. Parsley: has antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s rich in vitamin C and vitamin A and can help boost your immunity. Lemon juice: citrus fruits are packed with vitamin C and can strengthen your immune system. Miso: provides beneficial probiotics that may help improve immune function. This nutritious recipe is also high in fiber and amazing for your digestion thanks to ingredients like ginger, celery, parsley and miso paste. It’s an easy, fuss-free and budget-friendly recipe. And it has noodles, and who doesn’t love a bowl of noodles?! Though if you want to keep this soup on the healthier side, I recommend using whole-grain (or gluten-free) pasta. I usually make this recipe during the winter, but it’s delicious all year round. So whenever you are feeling under the weather, try having a bowl of this healthy vegan soup. **If you try this comforting soup, let us know what you think.
