Healthy, because
In addition to the potatoes, the thick beans bring a nice smoothness to the creamy green bean soup and at the same time provide vegetable protein for building and maintaining muscle mass. In addition to the immune booster vitamin C, the beans also contain calcium, which ensures strong and healthy bones. The potatoes satiate with long-chain carbohydrates for a long time.
Even smarter
The creamy green bean soup can be topped with croutons, fresh basil and pine nuts.
