We have already written about the benefits of celery for losing weight. Both the leaves and the roots of this amazing plant are deservedly respected by cooks, housewives and nutritionists around the world. Celery contains a lot of water and fiber, but it has very few calories. It perfectly helps to cope with the feeling of hunger – it saturates quickly and for a long time, reduces cholesterol level, normalizes blood pressure, improves digestion and promotes good complexion and smooth skin. And celery in any form is very effective against edema. If you consume it regularly, you will forget about puffiness, bloating and increased gas formation.

Ingredients (about 2 servings):
Celery puree soup: recipe in a blender
Peel the onions, chop and fry in a drop of oil until golden brown. Cut the carrot and celery into small pieces. Combine the ingredients in the same pot – pan, cover with cool water and put on the fire. Add spices. Bring to a boil. Then cook for about half an hour over medium heat (vegetables should be soft, but not turn into porridge). Vegetables are recommended to slightly undercook – so they will save more nutrients. Then mash the soup in a blender for a minute, until a homogeneous air mass.
Pour in the cream and stir. Try, if necessary, salt (but you can do without salt, if you lose weight). Celery root cream soup is ready! Serve with fresh greens, a piece of toasted rye bread, toast, and crackers.
