Soup-er Simple! Chilly winter rides are best followed by homemade nutritious soups! Soups are the perfect way to thaw out and refuel your body quickly with loads of vitamins, minerals, and a balance of macro-nutrients. Instead of opening a can loaded with sodium and mushy vegetables, whip up your own version with whatever you've got on hand. No recipe required!

Recipe:
Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil. Add well-chopped veggies like peppers, cabbage, potato, squash, cauliflower. Add tender veggies like broccolini or spinach last. 
Ratios? 4 cups of veggies for 4-6 servings of soup. Add rotisserie chicken or cooked turkey sausage for a protein punch. Use low sodium boxed broth, covering your meat and veggies by about an inch. Bump up the fiber by adding grains, beans, or pastas (1/2-1 cup). Simmer for 10-20 minutes to help the flavors expand. Add a pop of flavor with pesto, chili paste, lime or spices like cumin, cayenne, cinnamon and paprika. Slurp and enjoy!
