Pea Soup with Watercress
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
100 grams of watercress already cover more than half of the daily requirement of vitamin A, which we need for healthy skin and a strong immune system. The magnesium and the nerve-strengthening B vitamins from the mountain cheese have a relaxing effect and help to deal with stress more calmly.
Serve with your favorite homemade bread - that not only keeps you full longer but also scores with plenty of healthy ingredients.
