| ------------------------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| Beets, Carrots, Red Cabbage, Celery, Onion, Garlic, Potatoes | High in fiber, vitamins A, C, K, folate, antioxidants | Potatoes add carbs but still nutrient-rich               |
| Kidney Beans                                                 | Excellent plant-based protein, fiber, iron            | Helps balance blood sugar                                |
| Veggie Broth & Tomato Paste                                  | Low calorie flavor base                               | Check sodium if store-bought                             |
| Sauerkraut                                                   | Probiotics + fiber                                    | May be high in sodium                                    |
| Sour Cream (1 scoop)                                         | Adds creaminess + small amount of fat & calcium       | Full-fat increases calories; could swap for Greek yogurt |

===== Overall Nutritional Profile =====
* High in fiber → Great for digestion and blood sugar control
* Rich in antioxidants & anti-inflammatory compounds (beets, cabbage, garlic)
* Moderate protein (from beans — could be boosted if desired)
* Low in fat unless sour cream portion is large
* Main caution: sodium, depending on broth/sauerkraut

===== Health Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5 / 5) =====

This is an excellent, nutrient-dense, heart-healthy meal — especially if the broth and sauerkraut aren’t excessively salty.

===== How to Maximize Healthiness Even Further (Optional) =====

| Swap / Tip                                                 | Benefit                                |
| ---------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Use low-sodium broth and rinsed sauerkraut                 | Reduces sodium load                    |
| Swap sour cream for plain Greek yogurt                     | More protein, less saturated fat       |
| Add a side of whole grain bread or lean protein (optional) | Makes it a more filling, balanced meal |
