After all these years, this is still a "go to" soup for me whenever I want to shed a few pounds - not to mention it's just delicious! Don't feel limited to the vegetables in the recipe either. I receive an organic farm box of vegetables every two weeks, and I've added all kinds of things to this soup to use those up - celery, swiss chard, spinach, red cabbage, spring onions, shallots, kale, plus any fresh herbs I may have, such as thyme or rosemary. I also throw in a can of Ro-Tel tomatoes to give it a little kick. I try to avoid a ton of starchy vegetables, like squash or beets (think carbs). If I'm particularly hungry and have points to spare, I also keep grilled chicken or cans of black or white beans around to add a little protein to the soup - DEELISH!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a stay at home mom of 3 children, 4 counting my husband. My children are Deanna 12, Brendon 10 and Natalie 18 months. I love to cook different things. My husband and oldest child are very picky. So when I cook things with veggies in the recipe I put them in the food processor so they don't see it, but they are getting the vitamins from them. I have recently started Weight Watchers, so now on the prowl for new healthy recipes but that are easy to make.
