    2tbsp virgin olive –oil
    2 large white onions sliced ( sweet)
    1 ½ pounds of boneless chicken or turkey cooked and diced
    1 large carrot ( shredded or sliced)
    2 large garlic cloves minced
    ½ tsp chili powder
    2 tsp oregano or thyme ( I used one of each)
    8 cups fat –free . low sodium chicken broth
    1 can black beans ( drained) I didn’t have black beans so used lentils ( yummy)
    6 cups of baby spinach leaves or 1 pkg. of frozen chopped
    1 large tomato diced ( l large can of diced tomatoes)
    7 tbsp of grated parmesan cheese
    Brown onions and carrots in oil in large pot. When tender add stock , garlic chili powder , boil for 5 minutes. Add beans , tomato and spinach, thyme, oregano, and chicken. Bring back to boil. Let boil 2 minutes then turn off the heat. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
    Enjoy twice daily.
    This makes a dutch oven full so feel free to freeze, It is filling and nutritious , I don't know the calorie count, sorry about that!:smooched:

    I make a super easy veggie soup with whatever I have on hand at any given moment. Carrots, onions, celery, potatos, tomatos, zuchinnis, squashes, brocoli, spinach, etc. Just use your favorite veggies, some water or low sodium broth. Boil, season to taste, then blend if you like a cream thick soup. I like to add lots of ginger and garlic!

    Saute your onions and other veggies in butter or other flavorful fat/oil at the beginning of making vegetable soup. It's an insignificant amount of calories in a big pot of soup, but it floats on the top and the flavor fills your head as you're eating.

    I am a soup lover too! I make it every sunday and take the extra for lunch during the week...if my husband doen't eat it first. He asked me to make this one twice this week. I like to float a tablespoon of FF sour cream and fresh lime juice on top after i put it in a bowl.
