"This recipe started out as the "famous" Weight Watchers vegetable soup recipe. I have modified it to our tastes. It is still low calorie and guilt free. We make this every winter now and have it for lunch everyday. It's just too hard to try to eat a cold sandwich on a snowy winter day. The beef broth that I use is very low sodium...so you might want to skip the salt if yours has alot of sodium. You could also use chicken broth or vegetable broth for a change of pace."

I have always loved to cook. I really love to try new recipes! RecipeZaar is perfect for looking for new recipes. It's the first place I go when looking for something new! My husband and I moved to Northeast Arizona (up in the mountains) in April (2007). We live near Show Low. The summer was absolutely beautiful! It never got to 100 degrees! Coming from Phoenix, we both enjoy being away from the heat and the city. Our first snow this year was absolutely gorgeous! My recipe ratings pretty much follow the star system. I will usually make a recipe as is the first time. I say usually but I do still change things sometimes. I try to be fair if I have made changes. I will rate 5 stars if we LOVE it and it will be a regular dish around our house. 4 stars if we really liked it and 3 stars if it was just OK but we wouldn't make it again. I realize everyone's tastes are different so I do try to be gentle. Cooking can be a very personal thing to someone. Another creative outlet for me is beading. I love to make beaded jewelry.
