Sick Day Soup Recipe

By

Sick day soup is exactly what it says it is. A great soup to have on hand when you’re feeling less than your best.

Feeling under the weather?

With everything going on in the world right now, feel better food is going to be in high demand in the coming months. Add to that the fact that we are still in the middle of our regular cold and flu season, and it’s pretty obvious that soups and stews are going to be in high demand over the next month or two.

A black and red bowl sits filled with this Sick Day Soup Recipe

It never hurts to have some good soup, or at the very least, some good broth, stocked in your freezer. Nobody wants to cook when they don’t feel good. But if you make some ahead of time to keep in the freezer, you’re far more likely to eat something that will actually benefit your body when it’s feeling at its worst.

If you’ve got a sicky at home, or if you’re under the weather yourself, this soup is the perfect quick fix for a sick day meal.

If you intend on making this ahead of time and storing it in the freezer, just be aware that you want to freeze the soup separately from the grains or pasta. While they will certainly freeze, it’s been my experience that this freezes better when the two are separated. The choice if yours, of course, but that’s the way I do it in my kitchen. Plus, it never hurts to have a good broth in the freezer for multiple reasons. And if you need to, simply freeze in single portion sizes so you can just add some grains or pasta, one serving at a time.

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
