Guest guest Posted December 30, 2003 Report Share Posted December 30, 2003 Kris, I love that soup....haven't made it in a while.....My son is beginning WW with me and I know he would like it......I'm re adding it to my repertoire _____ From: Jay & Kris Swofford Sent: Tuesday, December 30, 2003 11:51 PM To: Serious-Weight-Watchers Subject: Taco Soup If you like spicy you will like this one. I think it has been posted before but it is really good so I'll post it again ;o) It calls for a full package of Taco seasoning but you really only need about half. I made it with the whole package and it came out way to salty for me and quite hot. The tomatoes I bought had jalapeño's and green chilies so that might have been part of it. The second time I made it with half a pack and it was just right so I would start with that and then gradually add more if you like. Kris Go to the store and get all of this: 1 lg onion, chopped 1 pkg, taco seasoning mix 2 cups whole kernel corn 1 can chicken or vegetable broth 1 can black beans 1 can white beans 1 can fat-free refried beans 1 can diced tomatoes, (Mexican flavor) 1 can diced tomatoes, (any flavor) Here's how to put it together: 1 - Sweat the onions (this means chopping them up and tossing them in a nonstick pan sprayed with vegetable spray. Just keep tossing them around in the pan until then start to soften.) 2 - Start opening cans! take out a BIG POT and begin by putting the 2 cans of tomatoes in with the refried beans... stir it up until it is smooth. 3 - Add all the other cans and the onions. (Do not drain the beans, do drain the corn if you are using cans of corn - frozen corn is wonderfully here.) Stir it up. Add the taco mix. 4 - Bring the soup up to JUST a boil (do not boil for more than a moment.) Cover and simmer 1 hour. (You can do the simmering in a crock pot for a few hours, that makes primo soup.) _____ Hey, someone posted a low points soup link the other day....and I tried the Spicy Carrot Soup recipe....I modified it by adding some jalapeños (I like spicy)...then after blending I added a dollop of fat free sour cream to my cup ....it was absolutely delicious.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 I'm not sure the number of servings but it's AT LEAST 8 or 10. It makes a really BIG pot of soup. Since I'm the only one that eats it at my house I freeze most of it. Serving size is 1 cup and the points are 1 or 2. I assume that's because some people count the extra fiber? The recipe came from a gal at my meeting and she said it was one or two points depending on how you figure it. I haven't figured the points on WW website because they don't allow you to just count things by the can, it has to be cups or ounces. Since I don't have all the ingredients on hand right now I have no idea the servings or weight per can. I have been counting one cup as 1 point and two as two points. Once I get all the ingredients again I will figure it out for sure and let everyone know. Kris _____ From: lightdancer7@...
