Why Soup is Good for You

• Nutrient Dense Meal – When you usually cook vegetables in water, the water is thrown away – tossing a lot of the nutrients with them.  Instead, when you make this soup, all the vitamins and minerals stay in the broth and make their way into your very happy stomach.   
• Hydrates You – Most soups have a high water content, and we could all use more water – don’t you think?  The water content creates a filling meal, helping to ensure you don’t crave additional unwanted calories.  
• Sneak in Vegetables – For those members of your family that aren’t big fans of vegetables, soup is an easy way to ensure they get more in their diets.  
• Comforting Meal – On a cold winter night, nothing beats a bowl of soup to warm you up and bring a bit of coziness to the evening.  
• Meal Prep – Soups are one of the easiest meals to make – making it much easier to meal prep. Whether you use a slow cooker or stovetop – most soups are just chopping a few ingredients and letting time meld the flavors together. You can freeze the low carb cabbage soup into separate serving size portions and reheat it when needed.
• Inexpensive Meal – Most soups are an inexpensive option for creating a delicious meal. Depending on what type of soup you make, using chicken stock you make yourself and being composed of primarily vegetables, soups can be good on the wallet.
