Here's an easy soup that I just love!!

2 bags frozen veggies
5 Cups chicken stock (fat free)
1 can diced tomatoes
a bit of chopped garlic (if wanted)
8 oz light velveeta cheese, cubed


Bring chicken stock to a boil and add frozen veggies. Let cook for 10 minutes and then remove from heat. Add diced tomatoes with its juice and stir. Add cubed cheese and once it melts, stir again. Should make about 8-10 Cups of soup for 1 pt each cup. I use a veggie mix with asperagus, green beans, zuccini and mushrooms. Definitely a hearty bowl of soup!!! Good luck.

Here's another fave.......

2 lbs of baby carrots (halved)
5 cups low sodium chicken broth
ginger to taste.

Boil carrots in broth for 10-15 minutes until tender. Let cool a bit and then add broth and carrots to a blender and puree. Add ginger to taste...(I usually add about 1/4 tsp)

Makes a very thick and saucey type of soup. Very hearty!!!

1 Cup = 1 pt
This is a ww's recipe from one of their cookbooks.

I did a Google search several months ago for "zero point soups" (using the quotes). I don't remember the actual websites I found, but I had a whole file of zero to three point soups. I must have had fifty to a hundred soup recipes. Unfortunately my hard drive crashed a month or two ago, and we lost everything.

One of my favorites is thai soup. It can be very easy or a little complicated.

At it's simplest it is just low fat chicken broth (canned, or even better if you have an oriental grocery store nearby, canned broth or cubes - "Pho Ga" if you can find it (Thai Chicken Broth). Pho Ba is beef broth, so you need to be aware of what you're buying (good too, but I like the chicken). I heat the broth, then I weigh out one or two point serving of dry rice noodles and toss them into the broth (I like the thinnest noodles because they cook almost instantly, and it seems like more noodle).

This is good just like that, but if I have any of the following, I add them, chopped cilantro, bean sprouts, and chopped green onions or chives.

I had this in an oriental restaurant, and I loved it. In the restaurant it has white meat chicken and more noodles. I usually don't add the chicken unless I have cooked chicken leftover. The restaurants also served it fresh cilantro, bean sprouts, green onion, lime wedges, hot sauce and hoisin sauce to stir in to taste.

I will sometimes add a little rice vinegar or the lime juice, but it's easy to ruin a soup with too much, so if you want to try it, be careful.

I just put this soup together today for my sick hubby, it is very good. I usually puree the carrots, celery and onion as the kids don't like them in chunks and it also thickens the soup a bit. Of course you can also season this to your taste, I will be adding some hot sauce to mine as I love my soups spicy.

Chicken and Black Bean Soup

1 Tbls minced garlic
1 tsp dry basil
1 bay leaf

20 cups @ 33.5 points = 1.675 points per cup
