Cold times, in my mind at least, call for SOUP!
I get asked about soup a lot. Technically soup sort of violates the whole "no eating and drinking together" rule. I tend to eat the "guts" out of soup (the meat and veggies) and leave the broth or I sip the broth then eat the chunky stuff.
For those of you who don't know why that's a rule, it's mainly a rule for gastric bypass patients who don't have the "trap door," so to speak, between the stomach and the intestines. So when you drink on top of food it pushes food through the stomach too quickly, putting you at risk of getting hungry again too fast. Here's a video by my friend Rob Portinga, of Former Fat Dudes, that explains it WAY better than I can.
Anyhoo here are a few soup recipes from the BF coffers. Most of them are easy to make (some are even 30 minute meals), warm and comforting.
These soups will all warm your body while giving you veggies, protein and nutrients!
For those who live in warmer temps, I'm giving you the stinkeye count your blessings. For the rest of us, bundle up! And play with your food!
