BENEFITS OF TURMERIC
The turmeric in this recipe creates a vibrant color to the soup. It's hands down one of my favorite spices to cook with these days. The proven health benefits are a great reason to use the spice, but I also love the punch of flavor it provides.
I believe turmeric has super powers we are just beginning to understand in the United States. It has been used in India for thousands of years as a medicinal herb. Check out this article to learn more about all the health benefits turmeric provides.
