    • Autumn season, a drop in temperature and drier air calls for nourishing soup for the lungs. Apple and Snow Pear Soup 蘋果雪梨無花果瘦肉湯 is super quick and easy to make and is suitable for all ages! My toddler even drinks two bowls worth! 100% nutritious. Zero fillers! The sweet tastes come from apples, snow pears and dried figs! Naturally, our skin becomes driers, and lips get chapped. Although topical skincare is essential, it is more important to nourish and moisturize from within. #APPLES #SNOWPEARS #AUTUMNSOUP #SOUPWEATHER #EASYSOUPRECIPES #CHINESERECIPES #CHINESESOUPS #秋冬進補 #潤肺 #清熱 #雪梨 #蘋果 #百合 #蓮子 #南北杏 #eatseasonally #fallharvest #soupweather #instanomss
