A savvy woman's blood sugar-balancing soup recipe is earning plaudits from diabetics who hailed it as 'healthy' and 'scrumptious'. Sharing the concoction on Facebook, food blogger Carleigh Bodrug – famous as PlantYou online – posted a video guiding viewers through her quick sweet potato and cauliflower soup recipe.
Raking in over 244,000 likes, the comment section was awash with compliments, reports Surrey Live. One viewer named Rose wrote: "That soup is so healthy. As a diabetic, I can use all those veggies ingredients. Thank you for sharing.". Another, Emma, commented: "It's SO yummy! I use fat free Greek yogurt in mine instead of coconut milk." Tonya chimed in: "That looks so delicious, I'm definitely going to make it." Brenda concurred: "I agree, this looks so good and healthy." Melanie shared her immediate trial: "Made it last night for dinner - delicious!".
To whip up this praised dish, you need cauliflower, shallots, garlic, red bell pepper, sweet potato, coconut milk, vegetable broth, olive oil, parsley, curry powder, salt, paprika, and cumin. Carleigh demonstrates tossing the vegetables with olive oil and spices on a baking sheet, roasting them to perfection for 40 minutes.
After a brief cooling period, she suggests blending the roasted veg until smooth, removing any tough stems or seeds beforehand. A final reheat is needed, and the soup is ready to be served. Cauliflower, packed with fibre and fewer carbs than white rice, can help keep blood sugar levels in check. Not only does fibre aid digestion, but it can also reduce the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes.
