What are the benefits of this dish?
Parsnips have a very distinct taste – they have the sweetness of the carrot, but with an earthy yummy nuttiness.
Here you have 3 very important reasons to eat parsnips:
🚀 They are an excellent alternative to add more variety to your diet.
🚀 They are rich in a special kind of sugar that is a very potent prebiotic -which as you know, stimulates the growth of good bacteria in the GI tract.
🚀 They contain vitamins C and E, which can help protect our body from free radicals that can cause disease. Vitamin C can also help produce white blood cells, immune cells that ward off foreign microbes. 👹
If you are making this soup with bone broth, get ready to get additional flavor and health benefits, as it is rich in easily digestive gelatin and is a source of essential amino acids.
