WEIGHT WATCHERS MEXICAN ZERO POINTS SOUP

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 cups vegetable broth (I used 6 cups water and Better Than Bouillon)
14 ounces canned diced tomato, Mexican-style preferred
2 cups fresh green beans (start with 8 ounces, then trim and snap into bite-size pieces)
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 small zucchini (about 8 ounces before trimming)
1 cup tomatillo, cubed (start with about 4 ounces or 2 medium tomatillos)
1/2 medium poblano chili pepper, chopped
1 medium jalapeño, membranes and seeds removed, minced (I used several rings of homemade pickled jalapeños)
1 medium red or yellow (Spanish) onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon fresh oregano (I used 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano)
2 roasted red peppers packed in water (I used these jarred peppers from Zergut)
1 tablespoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (these are found in small cans in the 'Mexican' section and boy, and be careful, they are hot!!!! I used only a scant teaspoon)
Salt to taste (Weight Watchers says 3/4 teaspoon 'salt', I used a good couple of teaspoons of kosher salt)
2 tablespoons lime juice (from 2 limes)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat a large pot or Dutch oven on MEDIUM HIGH. Add the vegetables and spices (canned tomatoes through as oregano) as they're prepped. Add the broth when it's ready. Whiz the red peppers and chipotle pepper in a mini food processor and stir in. (I love mine that came with an immersion blender. Could you skip this step? Yes but do make sure to mash the chipotle pepper to distribute as finely as possible throughout the soup.) Cover and bring to a boil. (Because I used boiling water, the soup was just starting to boil when I added the last ingredients.) Once at a boil, partly uncover the soup, reduce the heat to maintain a slow simmer and simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir in salt, lime juice and cilantro. Serve immediately.

  • If you want a thicker soup, you can add more beans or corn. You can also puree some of the soup in a blender and then add it back to the pot.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, avocado, or cilantro. You can also add a dollop of hot sauce for some extra spice.
  • This soup is great for meal prep. You can make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it throughout the week for lunch or dinner.
