The actual recipe has more sodium in it, because Nutrition Data does not have the statistics for the Coconut Broth in their database. However, the soup still packs 6 grams of fiber, 8 grams of protein, 491% of your Vitamin A requirement, and 129% of your Vitamin C requirement! WOW!
I enjoyed my cup of soup with crackers and cheese.
Crackers are always a perfect complement to a warm bowl of tasty soup!
What’s your absolute favorite soup? Mine is definitely French Onion!
Great way to add to a pre-made soup!
I made a carrot soup for dinner once and coincidentally caught a stomach flu shortly afterward. By association, I’ve never been able to tolerate carrot soup since. Oh well.
I love all soups, but I think split pea is my favorite. I used to eat Cambpell’s split pea soup all the time. Homemade is definitely better. I do like Healthy Choice clam chowder too.
