Notes

The caloric value was calculated per serving.

Recommendation for doshas:
Vata: this is a good meal for Vata dosha. A warm soup with a lot of vegetables and cream has a soothing effect on Vata's energy and can be eaten as well for lunch or dinner. Ginger would be a good addition too.
Pitta: Is also good for Pitta. It is better to use cooking cream instead of sour cream.
Kapha: Replace zucchini with more green beans or some broccoli if you wish. Add less cream or remove it completely from this recipe, as milk products increase Kapha energy.
