Light Winter Soups

11/08/13 | Food & Recipes, Quick & Easy Meals

Winter requires thick socks, a good book and a bowl full of soup to fight the winter chills. Now that it is starting to get colder, what better way to warm up than with these light winter soups?

Soup is healthy, easy to make and just happens to be a slimming meal. Veggie soups in particular are packed with nutrients and are low calorie so you will feel full for less. And if that isn’t incentive enough, soups contain powerful ingredients to help your body fight off disease.

We’ve compiled five delicious veggie soup recipes to help you stay warm and beat the winter blues (and weight gain).

1. Creamy Mushroom Soup with Shiitake

You had me at mushrooms. Mushrooms are the leading source of selenium, an antioxidant that boosts the immune system and helps protect body cells from damage. Get the recipe here to reap the benefits of this nutritional wunderkind.

2. Mexican Vegetable Soup with Lime and Avocado

As if the holidays weren’t enough of a fiesta. This recipe provides a delectable burst of chipotle goodness. Added bonus: cilantro is an effective detoxifying agent. Ole’!

3. White Bean Stew with Winter Squash and Kale

Mmmm stew, that sounds cozy. And healthy! Beans are low on the glycemic index so they fight against the storage of energy as body fat. Get the recipe here so stay warm and slim.

4. Carrot and Orange Soup with Ginger and Coriander

5. Spicy Pumpkin Soup with Lemongrass and Coconut Milk
