Ready In: 45 mins
Serves: 6-8
Ingredients
- 2 cups carrots, chopped
- 1⁄2-3⁄4 cup celery, chopped

- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 3⁄4 teaspoon cumin

- 1 large tomatoes
- 1⁄2 small onion
- 10 ounces rotel original diced tomatoes
- 10 ounces rotel diced tomatoes with lime and cilantro
- 12 1⁄2 ounces 98% fat free chicken breasts, chopped (you can use canned, but I would recommend emptying chicken into strainer first and rinsing thoroughl)
- 3⁄4 cup frozen corn (again, if you use canned, please rinse well to get rid of that sodium!)
- 2 1⁄2 ounces fresh arugula
Directions
- In medium saucepan, pour one can of chicken broth, carrots, celery, minced onion, garlic, Rotel lime and cilantro diced tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, lemon pepper and bay leaf.
- Simmer for about 20 minutes, or until carrots are tender.
- Meanwhile, slice the tomato and onion into quarters.
- Broil the tomato and onion for five minutes (sprayed with nonstick spray or rubbed with 1/2 teaspoons oil, whichever you prefer) or until tender; puree the tomato and onion with the other can of Rotel tomatoes.
- When carrots are tender, add the 2nd can of chicken broth, the pureed tomato mixture, chicken, corn, and arugula.
- Let the soup mixture simmer for another 20 minutes, then enjoy!
