Winter Minestrone Soup (my way)
1T Oil
4 Green onions chopped
1/2 Red Onion
2 Celery Stalks Chopped
4 Carrots Cut
6oz Deli Ham Chopped
4 cups water
4 cups Chicken Broth
4 bay leaves
1 1/2 tsp Basil
1/2 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
1 cup Wheat Berries Rinced
1 T Parmesan Cheese
2 14oz Can Diced Tomatoes
1 can Garbanzo Beans
1 can Green Beans
1 bag Spinach rinced with the stems broken off
Saute Onions Celery and Ham in oil till onions are clear. Add water, chicken broth, bay leaves,basil, salt, pepper, parmesan, and wheat berries. Cook on low for 2-3 hours. About 45 min before ready to serve add tomatoes and beans and heat through. As you are serving put the spinach in and stir it in.
The spinich warms up and it is so very yummy!!! And for all you pointers it is 4 points for 2 cups of soup. It has 6 grams of fiber and not much fat and it is yummy enough my kids even gobbled it up.
I hope everyone is doing better than I am this week. I seriously need some help this week. I just can't get motivated. If anyone has any good ideas please let me know.
