Nutritional values

Like all legumes, white beans score points with plenty of vegetable protein and fibre. Both provide lasting satiety and are also good for the brain, muscles and digestion.

If you need to move really fast: Instead of basil dumplings, serve wholemeal flat bread with the soup and spread basil quark on it.
