Best Vegetable Soup To Lose Weight

Hearty and healthy, this vegetable soup recipe has a rainbow of vegetables, including carrots, cabbage and zucchini, cooked in a flavorful broth.

We use either beef broth or chicken broth but you can use any homemade stock or broth or vegetable broth if you prefer.

Veggies – A variety of vegetables make this soup fun and flavorful.The cabbage adds bulk and fills your belly. If you’re not a fan of cabbage, you can most certainly substitute kale or spinach. Keep in mind that kale will add more bulk and spinach will shrink down quite a bit.

This soup is also called wonder soup, weight loss soup, miracle soup, and weight watcher soup. There are so many names for this soup!

Each cuphas only 71 calories (see nutritional info below). It’s a great way to get your vegetables in for the day and is very satisfying. After about a week of this eating plan, you should definitely see some pounds drop off the scale.

Basically, this soup is just veggies and some of my homemade “better than botox” bone broth (which you can make in the slow cooker or in the instant pot). You can also use store-bought vegetable, beef or chicken stock, just be sure that it’s low-sodium.

Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker Vegetable Soup

As for veggies, I kind of just threw in all of my favorites. Zucchini, carrots, celery, onions, tomatoes and some green pepper (red pepper also works). To add a bit more substance to the soup, a good amount of cabbage is added in as well.

The cabbage helps to keep you full and has detoxing properties to it.However, if you’re not a fan of cabbage, you could always swap in some baby spinach or kale instead.

I was sure to give my Weight Loss Cabbage Soup a good amount of seasoning with oregano, basil and red pepper flakes. I like my soup

, and reports show that spicy food can aid in weight loss, but if you’re sensitive to heat, feel free to leave the red pepper flakes out.

The original cabbage soup diet allows you to eat all of the cabbage soup you like in addition to adding certain foods on specific days throughout the week (see below). Whats not allowed? Bread, alcohol and carbonated beverages, including diet sodas.

I like to enjoy a cup of this Weight Loss Soup for lunch, again for an afternoon snack, and again for dinner with a bit of lean protein on the side. See below for my favorite suggestions.

Note: This soup cooks in just 4-minutes in the Instant Pot. However, for timing purposes, you do need to take into consideration the amount of time it takes for the pressure to build, about 15 minutes.

There’s quite a bit of chopping involved, so prep time is a bit time intense. If you’re short on time, you can use pre-chopped bagged veggies, frozen veggies, or, if your store has a salad bar, you can grab a combination of veggies from there too.

If you’re not looking for the weight loss properties of this soup, but still want to enjoy this amazing vegetable soup, you could bulk it up with a can of kidney beans or some ditalini pasta. If you’re using pasta, just add a cup of it to the instant pot before you seal it and cook it for 5 minutes instead of 4 minutes. Or, simmer it on the stove in your soup for about 10 minutes.

Eric and I were sitting at the table working earlier today, when a truly terrible song started playing on the radio. I started making gagging sounds in the background, knowing it was likely a David Bowie song. (Eric has been obsessed lately). Anyway, I stopped paying attention and then half a minute later I realized “hey, I like this part! This song is okay toward the end!” No, said Eric, I changed the song. This is the Strokes.

Well, so much for that. I thought maybe good ol David was growing on me. I think I’m just not cut out
