March is National Nutrition Month and this year's theme is Eat Right With Color.
Eating Right With Color can be accomplished by eating soup!
The picture to the right is of my vegan vegetable soup from Plaza Cafe. This soup contains several types of colors and veggies: green peas, white potatoes, orange carrots, yellow corn, green beans.
Soup is also soothing, particularly on a chilly day, and its volume tends to fill you up on fewer calories, which can be good if you're trying to lose weight.
You can find soup at every Dining Services' location. The healthier choices are broth-based (not cream-based) and contain a bunch of vegetables. Each restaurant serves at least one vegetarian soup daily.
If you have a favorite soup recipe, please send it to me! It will be considered for rotation into Dining's menu.
