Spirited Essence Works

Soup season has arrived! With the temperatures dropping lately, nothing sounds better than a warm bowl of soup. I love to curl up in a blanket next to the fire with a cup of soup. This recipe should warm anyone up. Also, it’s quite colorful. This would be great for any Halloween dinner. It is fantastic for getting the kids to try new foods too. The soup being so festive colored drew my boys into trying it out. Which to me is a mommy win! Sometimes new foods with toddlers is a fight. If you are short on time in the kitchen, it’s a quick and easy recipe that is also low carb. I am sure this will satisfy anyone’s soup cravings.
