GLP-1 soup recipes
25 recipes, each with its nutrition calculated.
A bowl of soup is an easy way to eat a whole meal on a day when a plate feels like too much, and these are built to be substantial: chicken, fish, beans or lentils in nearly every one.
Soups keep and freeze well, and each recipe gives the FDA chart's storage times alongside the reheating temperature.
