Healthy Winter Fruits and Veggies

Winter has sneaked up on us faster than expected. I love Winter just as much as I love Summer. Each season has it's special qualities and moments. In Johannesburg, I love that we don't have wet winters but rather wet summers. Winter is the time of year when my favourite foods start popping up more often, like butter nut soup. I can eat that day in and day out. That made me think of some healthy and yummy winter fruits and veggies...
