Mexican students create healthy instant soup

Students

from the Monterrey Institute of Technology and Higher Education (ITESM) created an instant soup made from chickpeas in order to offer a quick, affordable, and healthy alternative.

The soup has been named “ Ganu ” and it provides the necessary nutrients to be considered as a healthier option.

Daniel Sánchez

and Rafael Álvarez, who study Business Creation and Development , avoided using noodles, refined flour , and pasta .

But the instant soup is not only healthy and full of protein , but it is also friendly with the environment because the packaging is made from cornstarch , therefore, but it is also biodegradable .

Daniel Sánchez

explained that “the project was born when I realized that many people around me, at school and in the street, consumed instant soups , Therefore, I focused on providing them with a new version that preserved practicality but without sacrificing the q uality of the ingredients .”
