Butternut Apple Soup

The best way to boost your immunity naturally? Eat a wide variety of what nature provides us with! In the winter, that’s loads of orange vitamin-C-rich produce like squash, sweet potatoes, mandarins and khaki fruit. Soup is the perfect dish to make in batches so you can eat them over multiple days without having to cook every time. Pair with a salad and fresh sourdough for the perfect lunch! Warming and nourishing but still light and energizing.
