A lot of people don’t give up a good soup for dinner! Especially in winter, it becomes the perfect meal to warm up a little more and satiate, in addition to being delicious and catering to all tastes – as it can be prepared in countless ways, with the most varied ingredients!
Another advantage of soups is the fact that they are practical: although most recipes require a little time to peel and cut all the vegetables and ingredients that will be used, soups are easy to prepare and can still be made in large quantities and then be frozen in jars.
Many soups, however, have a large amount of carbohydrate in the recipe: potatoes, cassava, rice, etc. Which is not very beneficial, especially for those who are looking to lose weight.
But the great news is that a soup doesn’t need to be made with a lot of carbohydrates to be tasty, creamy and satiating… super good and, of course, warm up!
