outside. It really warms you up from the inside out. The good thing about soup is that it is generally healthy and
very filling. Soup is also a great dieuretic which means that it cleans out your system by making you urinate a
lot, similar to the way that drinking water works. So soup is great for your diet as long as you don’t load
it up with fat and carbohydrates. Don’t worry though it’s easy to make low calorie soups. There are many low
calorie soup recipes out there today with people trying to be more health conscious.Basic low calorie soup recipes consist of a few main ingredients. Number one is vegetables. Loads and loads of non
starchy vegetables. These include onions, leeks, turnips, kohlrabi, zuchinni, carrots, mushrooms, peppers, green
beans, tomatoes, celery, and pumpkin or butternut squash. You can make a soup with all of these vegetables in one
soup or you can make a soup using a lot of any one of the above veggies. Actually onions are a very good base for
most soups and I would recommend including onions in any soup, even one that has only one of the above list of
veggies. Potatos and sweet potatos are starchy vegetables and therefore are not low calorie but you can include
them in small quantity even in your low calorie soup recipes. Or you can include a handful of barley to thicken up
a soup without adding much calories.To season your soup you can add any spices that you like. Salt and a little black pepper can make your soup very
tasty. But there are many other spices and herbs such as garlic , dill , parsley and many more. Also clear chicken
broth or imitation chicken, onion soup, or mushroom soup broth can be diluted in hot water and added to your soup
to make it delicious.Soup freezes well so you can make a large pot of it and freeze the extras in airtight freezer containers and
defrost it when you would like some delicious body warming soup.An easy and filling meal in the winter is some low calorie soup and whole wheat bread. You will be so stuffed after
a meal like that you won’t be able to get up from the table. I remember a number of years ago in, New York City,
there was a chain of restaurants named “the Great American Health Bar”. They had amazing soups. Everyday they had a
few different soups of the day. When you ordered soup they would give you a thick slice of delicious, soft, fresh
whole grain bread. The whole meal cost about $3.00 or $3.50 and you could not eat another bite until dinner if you
wanted to because you felt so full.Another option for eating your low calorie soup is to take some along to work in a thermos. Heat it in the morning
before you put it in the thermos and it will stay hot until lunchtime. You can send this along with your kids to
school. It’s very healthy and nutritious and they might even like it. You may have to buy a 20 quart pot to have
enough soup to go around.
