5. Let them all boil together for approximately 10 minutes.

7. Once all ingredients are in the pot, reduce heat and let simmer for 30 minutes.

Choose vegetable broth with the lowest amount of sodium per serving. “A little” sodium is a percent daily value of 5% (120 mg) or less per serving. “A lot” of sodium is a percent daily value of 15% (360 mg) or more per serving.

We also recommend using mono and polyunsaturated oil-based margarine, like those with olive and canola oil, to improve overall cholesterol. While also using whole wheat bread for a fiber boost to help you stay full longer.
