Feeling weighed down after all of the heavy Thanksgiving Day food? Looking for a healthy break from the upcoming holiday eating sessions? Julie Freed of Freed Events, LLC, has just the right recipe. We love all of Julie’s @Freed_fit recipes, but this fish soup recipe really is hitting the spot for us right now! Mainly because the recent blustery winds have us yearning for a bowl of belly-warming soup. Having a healthy and protein-laden option is just what we need!

Her latest creation feeds 6, and you can whip it up in your instant pot or cook it old-school style on the stove. Enjoy, and thank you, Julie!
