Carrot-Ginger Soup (GF, V)

Cold weather calls for hot, cozy delicious carrot-ginger soup, and this one is ALL of the above. I snagged this recipe from my friend Toby over at Toby's Plate and it will most definitely be my new go-to this Winter season!

Coconut Turmeric Oats (GF, V)

Baby it's cold outside... Over the past few weeks, I’ve been seeing an incredible acupuncturist for my fertility health, who is also helping me build better blood circulation and improve digestion.
