MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Winter is an ideal time to find warm, hearty and healthy meals that can also be prepared with ingredients that are accessible to everyone.
Melanie Foland and Casey Gott joined us on Thursday, Jan. 4 to showcase Three Sisters Soup, a traditional Native American dish symbolizing cultural heritage and nutritional balance.
Foland, a Child Nutrition Educator at the Hunger Task Force, explained the soup's preparation, emphasizing its nutritional value with ingredients like corn, beans and squash. These components, essential during the winter, offer proteins, carbohydrates, and vital minerals.
Gott, coordinator of the Stockbox DoorDash Program, focused on the soup's cultural relevance, illustrating its role in symbolizing unity and interdependence in Native American traditions.
Ingredients for Three Sisters Soup are available in Hunger Task Force's partner pantries, making this traditional recipe accessible to families throughout the area.
