Chunky Broccoli & Rajma Soup

Broccoli's noteworthy nutrients include vitamin C, vitamin A, folic acid, calcium, and fiber. While the calcium content of one serving doesn't equal that of a glass of milk, broccoli is an important calcium source for those who don't consume dairy products. Research shows that this mineral may play a role in the control of high blood pressure, and it may work to prevent colon cancer. Broccoli is a fiber find. Not only is it a rich source, but half of its fiber is insoluble and half is soluble,Botanically, broccoli belongs to the cabbage family, collectively known as cruciferous vegetables.Rajma are highly rich in potassium, low-sodium food they help reduce blood pressure. Not only they are low in fat, but when combined with grains, beans supply high quality protein which provides a healthy alternative to meat or other animal protein. I combined both these wonderful veggies and beans to make out this delicious soup which suits prefectly for dinner,which tastes awesome with simple bread toast..
