National Homemade Soup Day

Before the era of modern transportation, soup was a product of regionally available foods. For this reason, there are thousands of soup recipes available today.

 

Many soups also have medicinal purposes. What was once considered a wives’ tale, chicken soup now has the backing of the scientific community with helping relieve the symptoms of the common cold. Scientists believe that a bowl of the soup may reduce inflammation of the lungs. It is thought that chicken soup slows down the activity of white blood cells that can cause the inflammation.

 

I'm not sick anymore but I just couldn't help my self this AM and made a pot of chicken noodle soup out of leftovers. Good to sip on this and look out at the winter snow!!!!!

 

Have a great Saturday. :)
