    Soup is typically celebrated as a fall and winter food, but the changeable springtime weather makes it a perfect dish for March and April, too – you never really know when it’s going to switch from cautiously sunny to gray and cold again, and it never hurts to have something hot and comforting in reserve.

    Beef Short Rib Soup

    Beef short ribs make a hearty and delicious soup, thanks to the long, slow simmer that draws out nutrients and flavor from the bones – it’s like making your own bone broth right in the stock pot!

    Add a generous helping of aromatic vegetables and a bouquet of fresh herbs, plus a little extra brisket for added protein, and all it needs is a while to simmer away and combine.

    This soup is a great comfort food, and it’s an interesting way to use short ribs if you’re getting a little bored of the barbecue-sauce-and-sticky-fingers-type recipes.

    It’s also AIP-friendly without any modification (although if low-FODMAPS is more your style, unfortunately, this is not the dish for you).

    Maybe try it with some roasted vegetables or just a quick side salad for an easy meal, and don’t forget to freeze some in case you get slammed with a surprise cold snap.
