About Light soup

Light Soup is a flavorful, broth-based dish that originates from West African cuisine, particularly Ghana. Known for its comforting and invigorating qualities, Light Soup is typically made with a blend of fresh tomatoes, onions, and peppers, slowly simmered to create a vibrant base. Common protein options like fish, chicken, or goat meat are added, enhancing its rich nutritional profile. Packed with vitamins from the vegetables, the soup is low in oil, making it a heart-friendly choice. It is often mildly spiced with ginger or garlic, offering additional health benefits, such as aiding digestion and boosting immunity. While the soup is generally considered healthy due to its low calorie content and nutrient-dense ingredients, traditional versions may include a moderate amount of sodium or fats, depending on preparation methods. Light Soup’s simplicity and wholesome composition make it a delightful addition to a nutritious diet.
