Our prompt this week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop is: “January is often when we reset our wellness goals. Share the recipe for a quick and healthy winter weather meal.”
Okay, this is really hard. There are so many delicious winter dishes and, honestly, I think anything you make with fresh, organic ingredients is going to be pretty healthy. But butternut squash soup--or pumpkin soup, or sweet potato soup--is one of my absolute favorites. Especially when served with a kale salad and a slice of fresh rosemary sourdough bread.
Here's a vegan version made with green apple and coconut milk:

Don't forget the pumpkin seeds (although I prefer mine raw). And nothing against thyme, but I also like to garnish mine with either rosemary or sage.
Oh, and I think this wine would go nicely.

Winter Hearts
Tales of a Most Unusual Family
Philadelphia, 1870
As the world mourns the loss of brilliant inventor Dr. Charles Winter (known affectionately to his friends as the professor) most remain unaware of the great technical advances he had made in the areas of cloning, artificial intelligence and mechanical life-forms. Sadly, this ignorance of so much of his most far-reaching and astonishing work extends even to the professor's own family, which includes his four adult children, the product of his marriage to the late Millicent Pearson Winter.
The younger Winters are quirky and independent, dedicated to social justice, rational science and intellectual achievement. Inculcated from earliest childhood with their mother's Quaker beliefs and their father's dedication to progress, the four siblings are tireless in their pursuit of whatever personal goals they happen to set for themselves.
At the time of their father's death, the siblings had yet to discover the fact that their supposed half-sister, Ophelia, was not the result of their father's infidelity as they'd long supposed.
This ignorance precipitated a crisis for Ophelia, as is documented in the series prequel, This Winter Heart.
