Healthy, because

Even smarter

Almonds provide not only high-quality protein but also many filling fibres. Their valuable unsaturated fatty acids protect blood vessels and the heart. They also contain a lot of bone-strengthening calcium and blood-forming iron.

You would like to prepare this soup without animal products? No problem, use an alternative product based on soya, oats or coconut or a little more almond paste instead of cream.
