Guest guest Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 Welcome! I suspect that whatever they are thickening the soup with, isn't legal. Not to mention it is sweetened with something, probably also very illegal. You could make your own in Phase 2 and thicken it with whole wheat flour, & sweeten it with your choice of legal sweeteners.

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 This is a tasty Phase II soup that's a lot like having Tomato Rice Soup without the rice. **** Oatmeal and Tomato Soup Submitted by: Buchanan A quick and cheap soup, using basics in your cupboards. Servings: 4 Ingredients: 1 onion, chopped 3 cloves crushed garlic 3 1/2 tablespoons margarine 1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes 4 cups water salt and pepper to taste 3/4 cup rolled oats Directions: 1. In a skillet, saute onion and garlic in butter, until onion becomes tender and begins to brown. 2. Add undrained tomatoes, water, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer. 3. While soup is simmering, toast rolled oats in a heavy bottomed sauce pan, stirring till they are brown. Stir in oats to soup and cook for about 6 to 10 minutes, and then serve. > > Hi i am new on this group...looks like just what i need..just found > out from cardologist that my tric and colorestrol is up and need to > diet and exercise to get it down..he said my heart was fine but.. > > so his nurse recommended this diet...which she is also on and her > boyfriend..and is doing great..so with the book being written by a > cardologist and my card nurse is on it and recommend it..that lead me > to why i am here and this group.. > > my question is it ok to eat can tomato soup with water added..? > > i weigh 183...more than in my whole life..i have stayed around 180 > for many years but when i quit cleaning houses...i gained extra 3 > pounds...not good. > > i am having breathing difficulites..they check lungs and heart.all > were good...anyone else had trouble with breathing problems..the card > doctor said i was physically challenged and needed to exercise to > increase my oxygen.. > > i am 52...married for 32 years to my wonder dh..have two awesome > daughters .23 and 28.. > > that is me in a nutshell...can't wait to hear from > everyone ..hugs.janie > > > > Reminder: The South Beach Diet is not low-carb.
