HAMBURGER MINESTRONE SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET)



Hamburger Minestrone Soup (South Beach Diet) image

I came across this recipe for minestrone, adapted for the South Beach Diet, on the 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet boards a few years ago. It's become a family favorite since. It makes quite a lot of soup, but it reheats well. If making this for the South Beach Diet, watch out for added sugar in the tomatoes and beans-- a lot of canned beans and tomato products have sugar added to them. You can also substitute very lean ground turkey and chicken broth for the beef.

AMAZING VEGETABLE SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET)



Amazing Vegetable Soup (South Beach Diet) image

This was posted by a fellow SBDer, Mamacita, in the 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet boards. It's a wonderfully delicious, simple, vegetable soup. It originally called for zucchini, but I leave it out as I dislike summer squash. Feel free to add some in if you like, though. I sometimes add in a can of navy beans, rinsed and drained, with the tomatoes. For South Beach Diet, make sure your tomatoes have no added sugar. It makes quite a bit, but it reheats fairly well--or you can cool and freeze it. Don't be afraid of the garlic--it mellows out a lot during cooking.

1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can navy beans, rinsed and drained (optional)
shredded parmesan cheese, optional garnish (optional)
basil pesto, optional garnish (optional)
