Balanced meals are the foundation of a healthy diet, keeping you energetic, and slim. That's why your diet should be rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, and fiber.
⠀
So, to turn a light soup into a hearty dish, add:
⠀
Slow carbohydrates:
- brown rice
- whole grain pasta
Fats:
- seeds and nuts
- avocado
Plant proteins:
- tofu
- legumes
- quinoa, rolled oats, buckwheat
- broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts
To avoid ruining the benefits of the soup:
- Don't cook it for too long. Cooking for 2-3 hours reduces the amount of cooking-sensitive vitamins B1, B6, B9, B12, C, and minerals by about half.
- do not reheat the same soup several times;
- Do not store the soup for more than 3 days (not only the benefits but also the taste will disappear).
⠀
You can make an excellent soup from the simplest ingredients.
