Nutritional values

The chicory trumps with the fibre inulin; this balances the blood sugar level and drives away ravenous appetite. In addition, the vegetables add vitamin A to the cream soup, which has a positive effect on vision and ensures beautiful skin.

Depending on availability, the sweet potato portion of the cream soup can also be replaced by potatoes or pumpkin.
