Healthy Buckwheat Soup in a bowl

As a child, we grew up on soups. They were on mom’s daily menu and we’ve always felt healthy and it kept us in shape. As of now, it feels like I am not so well at implementing the same rule at home. We have a soup once every few weeks, while trying out all of those heavy recipes. Still working on new and permanent habits for our family this year, I have much hope to eat more of light and healthier soups.
