Fennel Soup with Walnuts and Blue Cheese
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
If you suffer from intestinal problems the essential oils from fennel soothe stomach complaints and relieve mild cramps in the abdomen. Blue cheese is particularly rich in calcium and phosphorus - an unbeatable team for strong bones and teeth.
The strong blue cheese perfectly complements the flavor of the aromatic fennel, but some find it too spicy. If you prefer a milder cheese, you can use shaved Parmesan or Pecorino or sprinkle the fennel soup with diced feta.
