Minestrone calories

Minestrone is a culinary preparation of variable composition, generally prepared by boiling over low heat - in cooking water enriched with stock cubes - vegetables cut into more or less coarse pieces. Depending on the recipe, various types of ingredients can be added to the minestrone, such as potatoes, legumes, pork rinds, sautées, etc. Like the composition, the calories of the soup also vary considerably in relation to the ingredients used.

Often, minestrone is proposed as a low-calorie food and basic dish of the "famous" minestrone diets; in reality, without precise indications on its preparation, a large variance in caloric intake is inevitable. This type of diet also promotes rapid but fictitious and transient weight loss, due to the notorious yo-yo effect, so after a quick weight loss (mainly due to water and protein losses), there is an equally rapid weight gain (due to the consequent drop in the basal metabolic rate and the psychological and physical unsustainability of the diet).

To calculate, with due approximations, the calories of the soup, simply select the various ingredients from the drop-down menu, specifying the quantities added each time.
