January 25, 2012Goodness! I have been thinking lately about the old Weight Watcher soup we all used to make and this is very close. Only we all called it Suicide Soup. Everyone loved it and everyone knew that far from ending your life, it was healthy, ridiculously low calorie and WONDERFULLY SATISFYING. It had what then WW called the Number 1 vegetables - the celery, cabbage, spinach, zucchini....none with a starch factor. It also used a base made with beef boullion. This goes into Try Soon and am sure it will conjure up those memories past of an incredible eat-anytime wo/guilt and satisfying soup. Thanks!
