Nothing beats a cold like soup. While it’s not a mythical cure-all, a warm, nutritious bowl always makes us feel better. In honor of National Homemade Soup Day February 4, we’re sharing a few of our favorite healthful, made-from-scratch soups, all available at local eateries.
Organic Red Lentil Quinoa Soup, The Chickpea
This gluten-free, lactose-free, vegan dish is packed with protein, fiber, and iron thanks to its wholesome ancient grains and legumes. Plus, the potassium and additional minerals provided by lentils make for a heart-healthy choice. West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach (561-855-7028, 561-877-8310)
Celery Root & Turmeric Soup, Aioli
The two primary ingredients in chef Michael Hackman’s vegan celery root and turmeric soup, available during the cooler months, boast myriad health benefits. Turmeric, lauded as a superfood, possesses anti-inflammatory properties, and celery root is rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber. West Palm Beach (561-366-7741)
Spicy Lemongrass Soup, The Sea South East Asian Kitchen
On the heartier (but still healthful) side, The Sea cooks up a seafood soup full of Asian-influenced ingredients. Lemongrass, a known digestive aid, serves as the base of the broth, which is boosted by scallions, tomatoes, and mushrooms, as well as fresh shrimp, scallops, mussels, squid, and snapper.
