So What are Healthy Soups?

Here’s how I define a healthy soup:

  • A balanced soup with veggies and protein and healthy fats
  • It can serve as a full meal
  • The soup is made with real food and minimally processed ingredients

Everyone defines “healthy” differently, but I know that you can find a soup you love and enjoy in this listing!
