Today’s Food Therapy comes emphatically in the
non-dessert form. I figure we need a break from the cupcakes, tortes, Easter treats and chocolates that we’ve consumed in one form or another or the past ten days!

Here’s some savory, wholesome fare from Bottom-Up Food: Homemade Triple Orange-Root Soup. It “packs a mean beta-carotene punch” thanks to a combo of butternut squash, carrots and sweet potato. There’s a bit of ginger and maple syrup involved, too, plus a dollop of tart yogurt for the mixing.

If you think visually, like I do, you’ll love the format of Bottom-Up Food’s concise, beautifully-photographed posts. They stay true to their mission of reducing “recipes down to the most elemental ingredients” — as this picture shows.

But, back to the soup. You’ll feel this goodness to the tips of your toes. That’s some punch!
