On the search for a low calorie, high nutrition soup, I designed this beauty, which is high in calcium, iron and protein. Prep time: 1hr, serves 6.
Onion (large)
garlic chopped (4 cloves)
Celery chopped (6 sticks
Mixed herbs, bay leaf (3 teaspoons)
Tinned tomatoes (2 cans)
Kale chopped (200g bag)
Butter beans (2 cans drained)
Hot water
I fried the onion, garlic and celery, added the herbs, salt and pepper, fried til translucent. Then I added the tomatoes, kale and hot water and Brought to the boil. After about half an hour, I added the beans and allowed to bubble for another half an hour.
This is everything you could want from a soup. Now that the autumn breezes are here, it’s a welcome soup to cosy up with. At only 250calories per serving you can add bread with no guilt and know that you are getting a third of your RDA of iron, calcium and protein munch munch munch
