    Here's one I'm trying tonight...I'm going to add chicken sausage (only adds +35 cals / serving) to add in some protein:

  • im horrible at making recipes...im too creative in the kitchen, and never remember what i used when it is all said and done.

    One thing i will share with you...start with old tomatoes.

    One of the local grocery stores, in my town, has a "bargin bin" for veggies that are just a little less than fresh. I always pick up the tomatoes and throw them in the freezer. When i want to make soups, stews, chilli or spaghetti sauce, i thaw them out and put them in the blender. Doing recipes like this with real, rather than canned ingredients really slashed to calories, and ups the nutrients. Experiment with spices, if you feel adventurous. I found a seasoning salt that has absolutely no sodium in it. It is all spices. It tastes like a mild Lowery's seasoning salt...my new best friend.:bigsmile:
    If you add veggies, mushrooms etc from a can, rince them well to remove excess salt, your ankles will thank you for it.

    In the end, if you make whatever-i-have-on-hand soupd like i do...these ideas are a great start.
  • You should check out the hungry girl website. Hungry-Girl.com I think. Great low cal recipes for dishes that I get cravings for pretty regularly.
  • THANK YOU!!!!:flowerforyou: I:heart: GUYS!

    I just posted this in the recipes. It's great and spicy! Omit the chipotle pepper if you don't like spicy. :)

    Tortilla soup

    1 medium onion, diced
    3 cloves garlic, minced
    1 tbsp chili powder
    1 tbsp oregano
    1 tbsp cumin
    1/2 tsp cayenne
    1 4 oz can green chilies
    1 14 oz can diced tomatoes
    1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, chopped up fine (this is my addition and isn't required...just add more cayenne if you want it spicier)
    8 cups reduced sodium chicken stock
    10 corn tortillas, chopped up
    2 cups chopped up leftover turkey or chicken (the chicken doesn't have to be cooked...can just add it to the pot)
    1 cup corn

    Sautee onion, garlic, and spices in a little chicken stock until onions are tender. Add chilies, tomatoes, and chipotle and sauté a little more. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil. Simmer 5 minutes then add tortillas. Simmer until tortillas are mostly dissolved, stirring occasionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom, about 10-15 minutes. Add meat and corn. Cook until heated through. If you're using raw meat, add to the soup about 10 minutes after you put the tortillas in and simmer for at least 5 minutes. It will cook pretty fast. Season if needed. Squeeze with a fresh lime wedge and enjoy! Only 217 calories and 2.8 grams of fat, 31 carbs, and 19 protein by my calculations or at least those on Sparkpeople.com). That's with the turkey anyway, but I assume the chicken would be the same.
