Raquel Welch's Wonder Soup I (To Lose Weight)
Servings: 1
Directions
- In a large stock pot, heat the oil and saute/fry the onions till tender. Add in the beans, lentils, and/or possibly barley with stock to cover, bring to a boil, lower heat, and simmer 20 min. Toss in the rest of the ingredients, bring to a boil with more stock, reduce heat, cover, and simmer till the vegetables are cooked but not too soft - about 30 min or possibly so.
- Comments: Not unlike the cabbage soup diet, but heartier and even cooked in a little oil. It's a great soup and one which you should eat to excess to lose the maximum amount of weight, according to Raquel. Plus you're not on a strict regimen and can take breaks from it as your life demands. You also have a lot of discretion in its making - you decide what and how much. Make a big pot and demolish it...make another pot....
