Yield 4 serving(s)

4 spring onions, thinly sliced

CORN AND SHRIMP SOUP (WEIGHT WATCHERS)



Corn and Shrimp Soup (Weight Watchers) image

My SIL gave me this recipe and said it's only 5 points per cup of soup. I cannot attest to how many points, but it is low fat. I've made this a few times, but have to admit I "fattened" it up, but the low-fat version is still very tasty. If you want a dish to serve for a special dinner or to company that is very rich you would need to make the following changes: Saute' your vegetables in 6 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat until onions are lightly carmelized. Substitute regular cream cheese for low fat, regular Cream of Mushroom Soup for the reduced fat version and heavy whipping cream for the fat free milk. Also, add one can (14 ounces) chicken broth. I also use double the amount of chopped onion when I make it. Yes, it does add quite a few calories and fat grams, but it is for a special occasion and you don't eat it every day. DH proclaimed this was his favorite soup (the "fattening" version. BTW, a friend who made it thought it had too much black pepper so please use your own personal preference in that area.

  • Use low-fat milk: To make your soup healthier, use low-fat milk instead of whole milk.
  • Serve with a side of crusty bread: A side of crusty bread is the perfect way to sop up all the delicious soup.
