The soup:
The heart of the diet is vegetable soup. Excluding potatoes, you can use any veg you like - experiment! - but the simplest version of the recipe is this:
Take equal portions of
Spinach
Carrots
Celery
Onions
Green peppers
Tomatoes
Chop them up, chuck them into a pot, cover with water and cook! Once cooked, blitz the softened vegetables in a food processor. You could also throw in some fresh herbs or spices for a bit of extra flavour. And there you have it - a unique, tasty and filling vegetable soup that you'd never find in a can!
No tinned!
Don't just buy tinned vegetable soup - the sodium content is through the roof and they often don't contain many vegetables. And many vegetable soups contain potatoes, which are high in starch and have a high GI. Leave them out as your goal is to lose weight!
