I know what you’re thinking. Swim suit season is just around the corner and I haven’t done diddly squat yet. Am I right? Yep, That’s me. I’ve been totally slacking at the gym lately too. I went out and bought some goggles and a swim cap to swim some laps after work, but have I done that yet? No. Well, if you’re being lazy like myself, you are going to love this soup. Eat this soup in place of lunch and dinner for the next week and you are gauranteed to lose 10 pounds. Trust me. This is just vegetable soup and it’s ZERO points, people. C’mon. Well, technically since Weight Watcher’s is doing Smart Points now, I calculated this soup to be 1 point. I would recommend eating it with a sandwich.
I was skeptical of trying this soup mainly because it had cabbage in it. I like cabbage, especially in chow mein noodles at Panda Express. This soup surprised me. If you don’t want to heat up your stove go ahead and make this in your slow cooker. I’d cook it on low for 4 hours. It beats heating up your house and you know you have the air conditioner on all Summer long anyways, so it’s OK to eat soup in the Summer.
Look at how colorful and healthy that soup looks!

What size crock pot works best?thanks
I make my soup with Tomato juice, cabbage, onions, green and red peppers, 1 can tomato paste and 2 large cans of diced (spicy) tomatoes. I also add celery and zucchini and lots of seasoning and spices. This makes a rich tomato flavored soup. Freezing the soup keeps it fresh and nicely individualized for one person servings.

What size crock pot?
Is it 22 calories just for one cup?
correct
Tomatoes are very acidic. So is red meat/beef broth. It’s important to balance your body’s pH and acid levels. An organic vegetable broth and a smaller amount of tomatoes is perhaps easier on the inflammation of your immune system.
