FEEL BETTER SOUP

Feeling a little under the weather? Had a little too much to drink?? Feeling BLAH.... ??? This is an amazing soup to give you that pick me up you are looking for!!! Don't fear the onions.... there are 6 in this recipe...!!! I know it sounds crazy but Onions are jam packed with immune-supportive Vitamin C, Chromium to help balance sugar levels, a ton of Fiber for Heart and Intestinal health. They are also a wonderful source of Manganese and Molybdenum which boost enzymes in the body, Vitamin B6, Folate, and Potassium,  Energy-Enhancing Phosphorus, Copper for Bone Support.  Onions are also low in Calories... only 60 in a whole cup. Mushrooms!!! Mushrooms have such incredible healing properties and are known for being an amazing protector against Cancer!!! Great source of the three essential B Vitamins...
