Healthy Low Calorie Lunch

Here's something I like to do for a quick, easy, great tasting lunch.  Just finished a bowl for lunch today. Very tasty, indeed.

Start with a can of Chicken Soup....  Being on a diet, I chose Healthy Choice Chicken and Rice.

Clean & rough chop a large carrot.

Do the same with a few stalks of Celery.

If you are an onion fan, rough chop half an onion or use some cut up scallions.

I happened to have half of a cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast left over from last night's dinner so I chunked that up and added it into the mix. 

Put everything into a sauce pan over a low heat and simmer for about fifteen minutes to soften the veggies and meld their wonder fresh flavors into the soup.

Add some fresh ground pepper and a dash of hot sauce if you like extra spicy soup.

If you aren't on a diet..... cube some Jarlsberg Cheese (1/4" to 1/2" cubes) and drop them in right after you ladle the piping hot soup into the bowl.  You can also shave some Parmesan Reggiano on if you like a little richer soup.

Enjoy!
