This soup rocks for just about anyone!!! Spinach Soup!!!

Okay...this soup really is awesome.  Even my Veggie-shy Husband loves it.  It is low cal and only 2pts per cup on WW without the cheese.  The gluten free cornbread is my old standby of Bobs Red Mill GF cornbread mix, and is moist and dense and delish!  It's 5pts per serving and worth every point!!!


Spinach Soup
In a 12qt pan on med\high heat add three Tbls. Olive oil.  Add two softball size onions chopped and cook them for about seven min. stirring occasionally.  Add 4 large garlic cloves chopped and cook for 5 more min.      
Add two large breasts of  raw chicken chopped and cook thoroughly.
Then add two to three Jalapenos chopped finely and 2 Large carrots shredded and cook for 5 min more.  Add 2 Tbls. Thyme and 1 Tbls Oregano and salt and pepper.  Add 10 cans or equivalent of chicken broth and 1 can of black beans.  Bring to a boil on med heat.  Then add 3-4 large tomatoes chopped.  Bring to a boil again.  Turn off heat and add immediately 1 lb. of spinach and stir to incorporate gently.  This tastes even better the next day.  We love to garnish with fine shredded romano...but it's delish without!!  Salt and pepper to taste if needed.

1 Cup of this soup is 2pt. WW
1 oz. of Romano is    3pts WW
1/16 cornbread is      5pts WW   (above is an 8th of the pan and 10pts)
