My Tortilla Soup Recipe

Well, here I go again, the pounds are coming back on?? I love it here in Florida, Husband’s home and so many things to do, BUT, I LOVE to go out to eat TOO !  I think I have shared  before… here I go again !
This is based on Weight Watchers 0 Point Tortilla Soup. But, I need meat in mine, I need the protein to keep me moving a bit longer.
3 chicken breast,  in a pot with about 6 cups of water.
add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper. Cook until the chicken is done, remove skin/bones, shred or use 4 cups of Can Chicken Broth (easier)
Pull chicken out and shred.
 
1 cup Chopped Onions Chopped
2 Garlic Cloves
3 Green Onions Chopped
 3-4 stalks of Celery Chopped
1/2 a Green Pepper
1/3 Cup Fresh Cilantro
Spray pan with spray oil.
Cook  in soup pan, make everything tender 10-15 minutes
 
Pour Chicken broth through a strainer and back into pot.(if homemade)
 
 Add Shredded Chicken
 
Add the rest of the ingredients  to the broth
 
2 – 12oz cans of Diced Tomatoes
1/2 cup Salsa, we like hot, use what you like
1 can Whole Corn – Or fresh off the cob
1/2 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon basil
Simmer and let cook down.
Serve with Sour Cream (I use Greek yogurt)
And taco chips
 
 Suggestions
  • When you have leftovers after the holidays or party, make this soup, you can add anything to it and it’s wonderful.
  • Try adding fresh spinach, cut up add in about 5 minutes before serving.
  • You can use any meat, shred turkey, shred roast beef or pork, if you use another meat or don’t want to do your own chicken stock, use 4 cups of Chicken Broth
  • This is a make it your own soup.
  • We eat this year round, mostly I think because it’s a great solo-lunch for me.
  • It’s very good without meat, it will be a 0 Point meal with no meat.
