Pumpkin soup with croutons
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so what is the best food for breakfast? What foods are suitable for breakfast? Let’s take a look at the 3 foods you can’t miss for breakfast.
1. Starchy foods
Breakfast is the "switch" of the brain, and its energy comes from carbohydrates, so be sure to eat some starchy foods for breakfast.
2. Protein should not be less
The protein that maintains the body's energy and responsiveness is also indispensable because a protein-containing breakfast can continuously release energy for several hours, making us more "hungry". You can choose eggs and other foods.
3. Have some vegetables and fruits for breakfast
Such as vegetable salad, fruit salad, and so on. This is not only to supplement water-soluble vitamins and fiber but also because the substances contained in fruits and vegetables can neutralize foods to achieve acid-base balance.
Here is a delicious meal for you to eat in the morning, pumpkin soup with croutons. Bread is a starchy food, pumpkin is a nutritious vegetable, and with protein, it is a good breakfast.
Peel and deseed the pumpkin, put it in a wall breaker, cook it with the milk, and add the washed thyme. Remove the thyme when the squash is soft. If you like the taste of seafood, you can add a small amount of chopped seafood. Once cooked, add ground white pepper to taste. Pour into a plate, drizzle with some extra virgin olive oil, and dress with chopped parsley.
With Croutons, you can use finished bread or make it yourself.
There are two ways:
a. Pour a little oil into the non-stick pan. After heating, add bread diced and stir-fry. Add salt, sugar, black pepper, etc. (you can also add other spices, as you like) to taste, and fry until browned.
b. You can also use the oven to cut the bread into cubes, add oil, salt, sugar, pepper, five-spice powder, etc., and bake it in a 180-degree oven until crispy (you need to stir it a few times in the middle to heat evenly).
Put the Croutons in the pumpkin soup and the delicious Pumpkin soup with croutons is done.
