Tomato and peas soup for weight loss : –
Ingredients – (Makes 4 -5 servings )
➡Tomato 4-5 ripe and fresh
➡Carrots – 2 medium sized
➡Steamed peas – 1 cup
➡Corn kernels ( 1/2 cup ) ( I prefer corn kernel instead of corn flour to make this soup healthier)
➡ Onion – 1 medium size
➡ Garlic – 4-5 clove
➡Cardamom – 1-2
➡Cinnamon – 1 cm stick
➡Cloves – 2-3
➡Chaat masala, salt, roasted jeera powder
➡ Red chili powder (If you are wondering why I am using red chili powder instead of black pepper in my soups, it’s because red chili powder increases weight loss rate by increasing your BMR with its thermogenic effect)
➡2 tsp sugar
➡ Coriander leaves chopped (for garnish)
➡ 1/4th tsp butter
Procedure –
➡ Add all the veggies except peas, cinnamon and 1 tsp salt to a pressure cooker and cook for 3 whistles.
➡ Cool it, remove the cinnamon stick and then blend the veggies in a mixer and make a puree.
➡ Do not strain this puree. I always prefer soups with their fiber content intact. It not only increases the health score of the dish, but it also satiates you well.
➡ In a pan, heat 1/4th tsp butter, add cardamom and cloves, add the steamed peas and vegetable puree. Mix well and then add salt, chaat masala, roasted jeera powder, and sugar.
➡Add water if needed to bring it to the right consistency when boiling this soup. You can also add a tsp of skimmed milk powder if you are into weight training/gymming.

Hi Thaseen ,
Thank you for reading at Dietburrp. Actually no matter hoe strict of a diet you follow, it works only for 25 days to 30 days .. after that the body gets used to the pattern and makes it the way of living , and further weight loss cannot be attained with the same diet. Hence you might not be losing further weight with same typoe of exercise and diet. you need to change your diet and walking pattern for further weight loss. adapt a good diet and increase the frequency of your walks, for better results.
