I love soup any time of the year but especially when the temperatures go down and it starts to get cooler. There is nothing better than snuggling up with a bowl of delicious soup and watching a good show! I also tend to want to eat less heavy dishes and soup is the perfect meal option to not feel weighted down after a meal. It can be challenging to eat FODMAP safe soup out in restaurants as there is almost always garlic and onion added which is why I make mine from home. Plus soup is so easy to throw together and utilize what you already have in the refrigerator. I love this specific soup because it’s packed with FODMAP safe vegetables and is broth based. I made this soup and ate the entire pot pretty much by myself for lunch and dinner for close to a week because it was THAT good!
