Hedda's Hearty Vegetable Soup 0 1 Ww Points
A very hearty (and optionally spicy) tomato based vegetable soup. originally received as a typed handout at a ww meeting - no trace of its source. the only change i made to it was to add pearl or pot barley. a big pot of this soup sits in my fridge when i feel the need to lose a few pounds. it is filling and virtually guilt free eating. eat as much as you want! all vegetables and quantities are optional and any non-starchy veg would work. tastes better when reheated.
