Healthy Soups! Fat-Free Vegetable Soup Recipe

 

 

By Rebecca Garcia

After indulging in a multitude of dietary sins over the holiday season, I'd would usually go "light" for a couple of days to rid myself of the guilt feelings. And, what better way to achieve that is to have a hearty bowl of soup with plenty of vegetables thrown in.

Soups fill you up without extra calories and are also great for increasing fluid intake. Here's a tasty fat-free soup recipe that's extremely easy to make and loaded with lots of fiber. I tell ya, it's so good that you don't even feel deprived!

Fat-Free Vegetable Soup Recipe

(serves 2)

Ingredients:

1 cup cabbage, shredded
1 carrot, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced
1 baby leek, sliced
3 cups vegetable stock
1 bay leaf
½ cup Cannellini beans
salt and black pepper, to taste
cilantro, to garnish

 

How to cook:

 

Pour vegetable stock into a large pot, throw in the bay leaf  and boil. Once it starts to boil,  add leek, celery, and carrots.

Continue boiling for 5 to 7 minutes.

Throw in cabbage and beans. Stir, and let vegetable soup boil for about an additional 3 to 5 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

 

Season vegetable soup with salt and pepper, garnish with cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy!

 

*You can also modify the vegetable soup recipe with your favorite vegetables or add small pasta shells or potatoes.
