If I could tell my younger self that I would eat bean sprout soup in the future, I would definitely laugh. I absolutely hate bean sprouts! Interestingly, as we age, our tastes change.
I've been following Slimming World for a while now, so I do try to get a lot of vegetables into my diet, especially quick meals like sprouts.
Sprout soup sounds very ordinary, but honestly, you have to try it, it tastes so good! Especially when topped with bacon bits or mixed with a bit of ham.
This super quick bean sprout soup recipe is perfect for cold days. I always make a big batch and freeze some for lunches during the week.
Brussels Sprouts Benefits
Brussels sprouts are not only delicious, but they also have a variety of health benefits and are a great addition to your diet. First, they are an excellent source of vitamins C and K, which play a vital role in immune function and bone health. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage, while vitamin K is essential for proper blood clotting and keeping bones strong.
In addition, Brussels sprouts are rich in fiber, which supports digestive health and may help maintain a healthy weight by promoting a feeling of fullness. This fiber also helps regulate blood sugar levels, making it an excellent choice for people looking to control their blood sugar levels.
Finally, Brussels sprouts are low in calories and are an excellent choice for anyone who wants to enjoy a delicious meal without consuming too many calories. Whether roasted, steamed or made into soup, adding Brussels sprouts to your meals is a delicious way to reap these health benefits.
What to serve with Brussels sprout soup
Sprout soup is delicious on its own, but if you want something for dipping, crusty French bread is perfect. For a heartier meal, add baked potatoes. If you want to up the comfort level, serve some crispy bacon or thin meat on the side, which is a great way to add a little crunch and flavor.

Can I freeze bean sprout soup?
Yes, you can freeze bean sprout soup! Freezing is a great way to preserve soup for future consumption, allowing you to enjoy it later without losing its flavor or nutritional value.
It's best to store it in an airtight container or freezer bag with a little room to expand. When you're ready to enjoy, reheat on the stove or in the microwave, stirring well to heat through.
You can freeze multiple batches of sprout soup for up to 3 months.
I use these factories meal prep containersmicrowave, refrigerator and dishwasher safe.
