If it makes my life easier

I want it.

My kitchen here is the size of a postage stamp. It's not a lot of fun cooking for one person. Sometimes I want something simple, but still filling and tasty. So, quick, easy, tasty, hmmmmmmmm.

At my WW meeting a few weeks ago, a lady from my park said she had a recipe for soup that her husband even likes. I love soup, though it usually takes me hours to make a pot. Want it tasty remember? I just made her soup. It was filling, tasty, easy as hell, and 2 points a serving. What an excellent thing to have before a meal to curb your appetite. For me, it was my lunch as I needed something light because I want to do my walk soon. It wasn't all that light though as I'm full right now.

Here you go....

8 CAN SOUP

1 can hormel turkey chili no beans
1 can hormel turkey chili with beans
1 can green beans
1 can mixed vegetables
1 can Rotel tomatoes
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can diced potatoes
1 can corn

That's it. Dump it in a pot and you have soup. I made 10 2 point servings out of it for about 1-1/4 cup each. I didn't drain the cans as I couldn't remember what she said. It tasted pretty good so I'm guessing don't drain the cans. I didn't even heat it before dividing it into 10 servings. After I was all done dividing, I put my one serving in a pan and heated just that.

How easy is that???? Thank you Joann!!!
