Teach kids the joy and healthiness of a delicious bowl of soup
January is National Soup Month!
It’s winter, it’s cold and it’s time for some soup. Soup is a great meal or complement to a meal.
My five top reasons I think soup is great for the family.
- Its warmth is soothing to the tummy on cold days and nights.
- There are so many different ways to make soup that your kids won’t get bored.
- It is usually pretty economical, so great for the budget.
- You can put all the ingredients in a crockpot and let it slow cook all day while you do something else.
- It tastes great!
How to keep soups healthy:
- Add lots of vegetables for a tasty and healthy soup.
- Make soup based in water – it’s lower in calories
- If your soup is cream based, then use low fat cream or milk for a lower fat soup
- Watch the salt, you can always add a bit more salt if needed
- Combine a cup of soup with a tasty sandwich or salad
