    I make my own version of a minestrone soup and I really like it. You could add or leave out just about anything, depending on your tastes and what you're in the mood for that day.

    1 can/bottle v8 juice
    1 can unsalted corn
    1 can red kidney beans (I use both dark and light, 1 can of each)
    1 can unsalted green beans
    1 can garbanzo beans

    Combine everything in a large stew pot (or crock pot) and cook to a simmer. I've added pasta to this soup before but found that I didn't like the pasta as much after the first or second day.

    I love the Butternut Squash with Red Pepper soup & its also zero point
    1 butternut squash

    half a red onion

    Pint of chicken stock

    glove of garlic crushed ( i like to mash garlic to a fine pulp with a little salt. i find it blends with the liquid better)

    2 red pepper (or yellow if you prefer)

    Cut the butternut squash into quarters, place on a baking tray and roast for ten minutes. This is to make the butternut squash soft enough for it to be peeled easily. Allow to cool down and peel and cut into small chunks. Meanwhile saute the onions and garlic in a little low fat cooking spray until the onions are soft. Chop the peppers and along with the rest of the ingredients boil until the soup is soft enough to blend. Blend the soup in a blender and return to the pan and heat through. Season to taste
  • Bum- ti- bump .. I like soup .. ideal for in the freezer!
  • WW Zero points or "Dump Soup"

    1 can diced tomatoes
    1 can mexicorn
    1 can black beans
    1 can veg-all
    1 can Progresso minestrone soup

    Dump all together, do not drain cans
  • I found another Dump Soup recipe that has a can of white corn, instead of mexicorn
    and a sm. can tomato sauce added.
    Hope this was the recipe you were searching for because it is easy and good.

    My notes say that one cup= 1 pt WW not 0

    I love soup. The WW soup recipe I have is the Garden Vegetable Soup: Recipe is as follows:

    2/3 C. sliced carrots
    1/2 C. diced onion
    2 minced garlic cloves
    3 C. fat free broth (chicken, vegetable, or beef)
    1 1/2 C. diced green cabbage
    1/2 C. green beans
    1 TB. tomato paste
    1/2 tsp. dried basil
    1/4 tsp. dried oregano
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/2 C.diced zucchini

    Directions: Spray a large saucepan with nonstick cooking spray, heat. Sauté 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, about 15 minutes or until beans are tender. Stir in zucchini and heat for 3 or 4 minutes. Serves 4 and is 0 points. You would need to figure out the calories but I doubt it has very many.

    I also got this one from a WW leader years ago. It is delicious and my husband loves it! It is 1 point for 2 cups. I checked once and it was accurate. If you add sour cream, cilantro a squeeze of lime and a few crumbled corn tortilla chips it is awesome (remember to add the points or calories.)

    Taco Soup

    It's a great point value at 2 cups for 1 point. It's easy to make and very
    tasty. I like to serve it with a squeeze of 1/4 lime, a dollop of fat free
    sour cream and sprinkled with cilantro. Enjoy.


    1 lg can crushed tomatoes
    1 can fat free turkey chili
    1 can garbanzo beans
    1 can black beans
    4 c. chicken broth
    1 4 oz can green chilies
    1 pkg taco seasoning
    1 lg onion
    1 c. carrots
    1 c. zucchini
    1 c. yellow squash

    Mix all ingredients in large pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer.

    I make a vegetable soup with
    2 boxes of Organic Vegetable broth ( any supermarket),
    lg can whole tomatoes( Squeezed with your hands)
    all frozen-2 cups Broccoli, Spinach and Cauliflower,
    1 cup of green beans, carrots, peas.
    You could add any vegetables you want but I would stay away from corn and potatoes if you want it to be carb friendly.
    Start with 1 med. onion sauteed in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until tender. Add broth, 3 bay leaves, 1 tsp. rosemary. I put a 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper helps speed up metabolism, but you can leave it out if you don't like spicy and all the veggies.
    1 can of pinto beans, also if you want .
    Bring to a boil, lower heat to simmer and Cook for at least an hour or two.
    If you want more protein you could add Chicken, but I like the Veggie version.
    It makes a lot of soup
    1 serving (2 cups)
    192 Cal. 28 carbs.
    5 grams Fat
    7 grams protein.
    So eat all you want. Serve with aladins low carb pita or weight watchers whole grain bread.
    Enjoy! Let me know what you think.

    Lentil Soup with Swiss Chard

    Lentils are good with all kinds of greens--from sweet spinach and chard to pungent broccoli rabe, turnip greens, and mustard greens. Adding the greens toward the end of cooking keeps their color bright.

    Yield: 6 servings

    Ingredients
    1 3/4 cups dried brown lentils
    2 quarts water
    1 cup diced carrot
    1 3/4 teaspoons sea salt
    Dash of dried thyme
    2 garlic cloves, crushed
    2 parsley sprigs
    2 bay leaves
    2 tablespoons butter
    3 cups chopped onion
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    6 cups torn Swiss chard
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    6 tablespoons plain whole yogurt
    Preparation
    Sort and wash the lentils. Combine lentils, water, and next 6 ingredients (water through bay leaves) in a large Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 45 minutes or until tender.

    Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cumin; sauté 10 minutes or until browned. Stir onion mixture into lentil mixture. Discard bay leaves and parsley. Add chard to soup; simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes or until chard is tender. Remove soup from heat. Stir in juice and pepper. Ladle 1 1/3 cups soup into each of 6 bowls; top each serving with 1 tablespoon yogurt. Yield: 6 servings.

    French Onion Soup





    10 sweet onions (like Vidalia’s) or a combination of sweet and red onions
    3 tablespoons butter
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 cups white wine
    10 ounces canned beef consume
    10 ounces chicken broth
    4 ounces apple cider (unfiltered is best)
    1 Bottle Cider Beer
    Bouquet garnish; thyme sprigs, bay leaf and parsley
    1 loaf country style bread
    Kosher salt
    Ground black pepper
    Splash of Cognac (optional)
    1 cup Fontina or Gruyere cheese, grated


    Trim the ends off each onion then slice from end to end. Remove peel and finely slice into half moon shapes. Set electric skillet to 300 degrees and add butter. Once butter has melted add a layer of onions and sprinkle with a little salt. Repeat layering onions and salt until all onions are in the skillet. Do not try stirring until onions have sweated down for 15 to 20 minutes. After that, stir occasionally until onions are dark mahogany and reduced to approximately 2 cups. This should take 45 minutes to 1 hour. Do not worry about burning.
    Add enough wine to cover the onions and turn heat to high, reducing the wine to a syrup consistency. Add consume, chicken broth, apple cider, beer and bouquet garnish. Reduce heat and simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
    Place oven rack in top 1/3 of oven and heat broiler.
    Cut country bread in rounds large enough to fit mouth of oven safe soup crocks. Place the slices on a baking sheet and place under broiler for 1 minute.
    Season soup mixture with salt, pepper and cognac. Ladle soup into crocks leaving one inch to the lip. Place bread round, toasted side down, on top of soup and top with grated cheese. Broil until cheese is bubbly and golden, 1 to 2 minutes.

    Don't think they would travel well. Wouldn't taste as good as if I prepared them for your personally. Plus, I wouldn't get the enjoyment of seeing your enjoyment.
