Swap Chicken Noodle Soup for Lentil Soup
Swap Chicken Noodle Soup for Lentil Soup Though the mere idea of this traditional, household soup might bring back memories of sick days from elementary school, the large amounts of sodium outweigh the protein from the chicken, leaving you wanting bowl after bowl. Instead, Jaelin suggests making a curry lentil to fill up your tummy. "The high fiber and protein will help you stay full longer. Fiber takes longer to digest and protein takes longer to convert to blood glucose than carbohydrates, preventing the blood glucose crash that makes you feel hungry again one hour after eating. Combined with curry flavour, this soup is aromatic and satisfying," she says.
