Bug Zappers and Flu fighters


The seasons are changing, summer is nearing it's end and fall is on it's way. We went for a family bike ride the other day and for the first time, I had to wear pants! (I normally wear skirts of shorts, not no pants at all). I have always found that when the seasons change, everyone gets sick, we are all feeling a bit under the weather at our house, so we decided to take action. Starting with the above; The Bug Zapper, warm organic apple cider (we used santa cruz organic apple cider), grated ginger (as much as you can stand), and a juiced lemon. So warm and soothing on a sore throat. This recipe is loosely adapted from a Rebar Modern Food recipe

For dinner we made a spicy tortilla soup, lots of flu fighting spice due to the chipotle and 4 jalepeno peppers and lots of vitamin C thanks to the 2 organic red peppers. The soup also has cilantro, 10 garlic cloves, 2 yellow onions, vegetable broth, corn and homemade corn tortillas. Recipe from The Rebar Modern Food Cook book. If this doesn't kill a bug thats brewing, I don't know what will. Any pro tips on fighting those fall bugs?
