QUICK CHICKEN NOODLE VEGETABLE SOUP (WEIGHT WATCHERS)

Quick Chicken Noodle Vegetable Soup (Weight Watchers) image

This soup is from an old issue of Weight Watchers Magazine. It's a core recipe or only has 3 points per serving if counting. If the broth gets a little too thick after refrigerating leftovers, add a little water to thin and reheat on stove or microwave. NOTE: Weight Watchers lists the calories per serving for this recipe to be 160 with 2 g fat which makes 3 points per serving. For some reason Zaar has the calories and fat a lot higher. I think that perhaps Zaar doesn't recognize the chicken ingredient to be skinless which would reduce the fat quantity.
