How To Make A Healthy, Heartwarming, Belly-Busting Vegetable Soup – It’s Good For You, Too!

 

I started making this soup after trying a bowl at mom’s house.  The weight loss aspect is great, but it’s actually just really good!  I’m always recommending it to friends for the flavor alone.

 

And whenever I feel a little lazy, I just pick up some frozen veggies to make this. It saves me a lot of time and the end result is just as delicious! I’ve seen people cringe when I’ve told them this is a Weight Watchers soup – but once they’ve had a taste, they’ve all asked for the recipe!

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 medium carrots, diced

2 small zucchini, diced
