Vegetable Soup is Good for your Health


This vegetable soup is good for your health because it lowers your blood pressure, it lowers your sugar levels, and it helps with the immune system. For this soup, you will need Cabbage, Chayote, Yucca, Cilantro, and Cauliflower. Cabbage contains Fiber, Vitamin C, and Beta Carotene. Cauliflower has Vitamin C, Vitamin K, and antioxidants. In contrast, Yucca has Vitamin C, Potassium, and Acid Folic which will boost your brain and immune system. 

Cilantro also has Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Potassium, and Iron. Last, Chayote has small amounts of Potassium. It also has Vitamin C and Acid Folic. In addition, Chayote and Yucca control your sugar levels. All these vegetables help to boost the immune system and the circulatory system. 

My vegetable soup recipe:

1. Two yuccas
2. One batch of cilantro
3.  Four chayotes
4. One cauliflower
5. One cabbage
6.  One Chicken bouillon or can of chicken broth
7. One lemon

First, wash all the vegetables. Second, peel off the vegetable skin of the Chayote and Yucca. Cut the leaves off from the cauliflower. Continue cutting the vegetables in small pieces. 
Afterward, cut the cabbage in small pieces. 

Then add water in a pot and cook the vegetables inside the pot. After the water begins to evaporate, you can add chicken broth or any other flavored broth. Chicken broth has potassium. You can choose low sodium chicken broth. Nonetheless, this vegetable soup can also be made with chicken bouillon instead of chicken broth. Continue adding more water if needed. You can add salt if needed.

This vegetable soup serves four people or more. Once the vegetables are soft to eat, you can add a little bit of lemon juice to add more flavor to the soup. This soup might be a little bit sweet due to the Yucca. However, all these vegetables have a high content of minerals, vitamins, and cancer-fighting properties. Here are more resources about Cabbage, Cauliflower, Chayote, Cilantro, and Yucca.
