Low Cal Veggie Soup
This recipe is so tasty you forget that it is low calorie. When feeding it to the family I serve cut up cooked chicken and cooked pasta on the side. Then they each just add what they want and it keeps everyone happy. This time I just made the soup for lunch and my 6 year old had 4 helpings and then wanted it the next day cause "it was ohhh so good"! I usually double or even triple the recipe. I hear it freezes well. Mine never lasts that long.
Low Cal Veggie Soup adapted from Weight Watchers (0 points) Makes 4 - 1 cup servings 2/3 cup sliced carrot 1/2 cup diced onion 2 garlic cloves, minced 3 cups fat-free broth (beef, chicken or vegetable -I like chicken!) 1 1/2 cups diced green cabbage 1/2 cup green beans 1 Tablespoon tomato paste 1/2 teaspoon dried basil 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup diced zucchini (or yellow squash) Spray a large saucepan with cooking spray. Saute the carrot, onion, and garlic over low heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add broth, cabbage, beans, tomato paste, basil, oregano and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, for about 15 minutes or until veggies are tender. Stir in zucchini and heat for about 5 more minutes. I usually add half zucchini and half yellow squash, but this time of the year could not find any yellow squash. This time I added about 2/3 cup asparagus (with all the main ingredients) and I really liked it. Check out Foodie Friday and Recipe Swap for some great recipes. ~Tiffanee related searches : Low
