Chicken Vegetable Soup

As I have said in the last couple posts, I love the Hungry Girl's cookbook, Hungry Girl 1-2-3: The Easiest, Most Delicious, Guilt-Free Recipes on the Planet by Lisa Lillien. We love soup, we could eat soup all the time. So, in her book I found a soup recipe in there called Hungry Chick Chunky Soup that I was going to make, but had to modify it with what I had on hand. I do have to say it turned out great, very filling and not as many calories as hers, I used a lot less chicken.

Servings: 10
Calories: 85 per 1 cup


Ingredients:

3 1/2 C Water
3 Chicken Bouillon Cubes
1 can (15.5 oz) Great Northern Beans
4 oz baby carrots, cut up
3 oz Broccoli Cole Slaw
1 can (14.5 oz) tomatoes, petite diced, undrained
1 C peas, frozen
8 oz chicken, skinless, boneless, breast, raw, diced
3/4 C Seasoning Blend (onions, peppers, celery mix, found in frozen food aisle with vegetables)
1/2 t salt
1/4 t ground thyme
1 bay leaf

Directions:

Heat water and Bouillon Cubes in microwave until dissolved.

Place all the ingredients in the crock pot and stir.

Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours, until chicken is fully cooked. Remove bay leaf and enjoy!
