As I sit down to write about this soup, I can’t help but think about the woman who inspired it, Rachael Rose. A mentor and friend as well as a talented accupuncturist at Full Circle Wellness here in Denver, she always encourages ginger scallion tea to boost the immune system.

After the success I had baking the gluten free soda bread recently, I’m all of a sudden motivated to try more gluten free baking.
