I was searching for a low-cal soup and made this one today. I added a tsp of "club house" Spicy Spagetti Seasoning, and used the immersion blender to puree/thicken the soup. Both my daughter and I had seconds. I also portioned off two "left-overs" for lunch the next day. After a winter of "over-indulging" this fit the bill for us, thanks!
