Notes

  • Calories are without the olive oil
  • The base ingredients, those effective against cold and cough are ginger, turmeric, garlic, pepper, and lemon. That's the base of your soup! you can add anything else you feel like adding. I made it with cauliflower rice, but I burn it a little so it was not photo friendly :P
  • It goes very well with chickpeas, beans, rice, anything that you would use for a soup!
  • Note that research shows that it is easier to prevent than to cure, and citrus fruits like lemons help a lot with preventing and boosting your immune system
