Warming and rewarding

When the doctor says …reduce sodium

Canned soups are brimming with sodium but this recipe contains just 125mg and is great for batch cooking. Don’t forget to mix up the flavour with your own toppers, too!

When you want to … kickstart weight loss

Cutting kilojoules is often the best way to drop kilograms, but that can leave you feeling hungry. This low-kilojoule soup (approximat­ely 1000kJ per serving!) totally satisfies. It has 25g of protein and

5g of fibre – super helpful nutrients that satiate hunger.

When you need a … vegie boost

Five servings of vegetables a day – that’s everyone’s minimum. But the more the merrier, right? You’ll get three servings of vegetables in each serve of this soup! And the gorgeous variety ensures you’ll get plenty of disease-fighting nutrients.

When you need to … fill up on fibre

Nutrition experts recommend at least 30g of fibre per day, and most of us fall way short. Fibre offers a variety of benefits, including heart health, regulating gut flora, and helping you feel full longer. The cannellini beans and capsicum in this recipe give you a whopping 12g per serving.
