EATING OUT
SOUP SPOT
BLACK BEAN
A warming winner—it’s low in calories and has tons of fibre and protein. (I’m
also a fan of its tasty cousin, lentil soup.)
MINESTRONE
This low-cal soup has a high-fibre medley of vegetables, pasta, and beans. Plus,
it packs in a healthy dose of vitamin A.
TOMATO
It has lots of antioxidants, like cancer-fighting lycopene. I treat this as the veggie
portion of the meal and pair it with protein and starch.
VEGETABLE BISQUE
It’s worth asking some what’s-in-there questions. Bisque with cream can be a
meal in its own right, caloriewise; straight-up veggie puree is more of a starter.
