Oatmeal soup with pumpkin and zucchini
A very light vegan gluten-free first course with a low glycemic index.
If you are not vegan, you can enrich it with grated Parmesan or vegan cheese.
It presents itself as a soup, but if you want to make it a light soup, just extend the broth to the desired amount.
Very easy to make and also in a short time.
For those who do not wish to use oatmeal, you can use quinoa and all grains, including pasta and rice of choice.
Oats contain slow-digesting carbohydrates and therefore provide long-term energy for the body.
It is usually well tolerated even by those with celiac disease and, in addition, it is the cereal richest in essential fatty acids (such as linoleic acid) and proteins.
