Health Benefits: Dutch Pea Soup, or erwtensoep, is a hearty and nutritious meal. It is rich in protein, primarily from the split peas and any added meats like sausage or ham. The soup is also a good source of dietary fiber, which aids in digestion and helps maintain a healthy weight. The carbohydrates provide energy, while the fats, often from meats, contribute to satiety. The soup contains essential vitamins and minerals, including iron, potassium, and vitamin C. However, it can be high in sodium and cholesterol, depending on the meat used, so it's best consumed in moderation.
Allergens Reason: Contains celery, which is a common allergen.
