A vegetable soup that is colorful, loaded with vegetables and brimming with nutrients, this is one easy to make vegetable soup. It is naturally low in calories that is why it is known as Weight loss vegetable soup. I can eat that for lunch, dinner or as a snack. In fact, this is what I have been eating a lot from last few days.

I make it with whatever vegetables are in my vegetable crisper. Also, my staple during those days when I am looking to reduce calories in my diet. That is the reason that this delicious soup is known as weight loss soup. While I really really love this soup, let me tell you the dreaded word. Exercise! I know it's not a great word to hear (at least to me) but for real and sustainable weight loss we need to include some sort of exercise with a low-calorie healthy diet.

As I am already a work in process and starting to exercise after a gap of almost 4 years I am still taking it easy with some brisk walking. Coming back to the pressure cooker weight loss soup, I make it quite often. I am not a great those bland and boring low-calorie diets but this pressure cooker Vegetable soup is quite filling. For weight loss single thing that works is creating calorie deficit.

This cabbage soup works for me because it helps me to cut the calories, unhealthy sugar, starches, and keep me full for longer period. No need to tell you that vegetables are healthy. Drinking a plenty of water, a healthy Low GI diet and walking everyday, this all seems to be working for me for now.

You can make it very quickly in a regular pressure cooker or electric pressure cooker as per your choice. I also make Instant Pot weight loss soup.

To add the variety you can add beans/quinoa etc, these may add calories but make it more filling and nutritional soup. You can also add garlic if you like the flavor. Tofu and paneer would be nice if you like to add some vegetarian protein.
