Soups are always nutritious and a wholesome meal by itself. A delicately flavoured soup enriches our body and our soul altogether. This is a quick and frequently-made soup at my home in summers.
The recipe calls for cucumber that acts as a cooling agent in warm summer days, mint to lift up the flavour and a refreshing taste, a small potato and onion to thicken the soup, rice stock that acts as the base of the soup and also as a natural body cooler. The added benefit in this recipe is it has LYVA’s Organic Raw Chia Seeds that are rich Omega-3 & Omega-6 essential fatty acids, protein and dietary fiber and BRAGG’s ACV that instantly peps up the flavour of the soup distinctively.
