With the temperatures getting colder the last couple weeks I've been having a jonesing for some soup. I cam across with this recipe in a magazine at my local grocery store. And seeing how I'm too cheap to buy the magazine just for a soup recipe, I quickly pulled on my smartphone and snapped a picture of the recipe, grabbed a few ingredients I didn't have and headed home to make it. It's really good and very filling.

sorry about the soup all over the bowl...note to self; put into a different for picture next time. |
In the magazine they had in labeled as a Fat Flush Soup, I hoping that's a good thing that maybe it will help me get back on track with losing some more weight, but that's a topic for other day. The serving size is very generous I think...it's 2 full cups. Only once have I been able to eat that much at one sitting. I usually have a cup and that fills me up.
Here's the recipe:
