CORN AND SHRIMP SOUP (WEIGHT WATCHERS)
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.

CORN AND SHRIMP SOUP (LOW-FAT)
Have a hearty soup on the table in under 20 minutes. Delicious and very easy to prepare...even easier if using pre-cooked shrimp. For variety, add one can crabmeat when you add the shrimp. Optional asparagus adds a little color and great taste!

WW 5 CAN SOUP
This recipe is from a Weight Watchers meeting. It is so quick -- I ate it daily when I was on maternity leave with my second son. If I am making it for the week, I just empty the cans into a plastic container and warm up 1 serving in the microwave. I have also made it using frozen corn and mixed vegetables. Those who enjoy this may also be interested in #57009 - "5 cans and a jar".
