0 Point Soup - Ww

ellie_'s Note:

Another 0 point soup -- just clock full of veggies! I don't eat this as snacks (as I know some people do) but rather as for dinner with sandwiches. This freezes wonderfully in small tupperware containers -- which is great to bring to work and heat up in the micro. Recipe source: www.weightwatchers.com

• Total Time: 55 mins
• Prep Time: 40 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 12

• 2 garlic cloves , minced
• 1 onion , diced
• 2 carrots , peeled and diced
• 1 red bell pepper , diced
• 2 zucchini , diced
• 2 cups cabbage , shredded
• 2 cups swiss chard , chopped
• 2 cups broccoli , cut into florets
• 2 teaspoons thyme , chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
• 6 cups vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons parsley , chopped
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice (optional)

Directions:

1. Put first 12 ingredients (garlic - broth) in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to a simmer and simmer partly covered for 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Leave veggies whole or I use an immersion blender and puree a bit -- leaving some veggie chunks.
2. Stir in parsley and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

This is an easy and tasty soup to make. I made mine with carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, garlic, and zucchini. Made for 2010 Favorites.

I like a clear soup and this one is so healthy I added cauliflower and I didn't have any kale. I did add 1 tsp of penzel Hot Cajun spice. Very enjoyable lunch thanks ellie

Not quite enough bite to it for me, but it's a good soup all the same. I just add red crushed pepper and regular pepper to taste. Freezes well also!
