caldo verde

September 2nd, 2008

You possibly will not believe you could lose weight while on a diet which includes caldo verde but it is obtainable. It is fundamental to not eat caldo verde or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself rich food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1200 to 2000 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat anything – within moderation of course.

I have been eating this way for the last 6 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.

I also find it helps to have some support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.

Caldo Verde (Cabbage Soup)

Many soups of Italy, like this one, are served at the table with a jug of olive oil. The cabbage must be very finely sliced because it is barely cooked.

1 pound potatoes
1 pound green cabbage, finely sliced
Water
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt, to taste

Peel and cook potatoes in just enough salted water to cover them. Blend potatoes with their cooking water. Thin with more water if necessary. You should have a medium consistency. Add cabbage and olive oil. Cook uncovered for 5 minutes, until the cabbage is lightly cooked. It should be a little crisp.

Serve with a jug of olive oil.
