What a healthy and delicious looking soup Veena. Slurp!!




I have been asked by many of my friends about the recipes I use for my low cal diet . When your aim is to loose that extra weight and inches, only the diet might not help you fully. The proper protein rich diet with the combination of workout will surely help you to reach the goal. The goal of course to should to become more fit than you are now. Do consult your doctor and trainer before you start your fitness regime.
Thick creamy soups and low cal smoothies can replace your regular carb loaded breakfast.I regularly make broccoli spinach soup for my breakfast as it is quite filling and takes cares of my protein necessity and nutrition as well.
