PEARL CHATS: Ever have those nights when nothing but an insanely simple dinner recipe will work otherwise you’ll go insane? Yeah, that’s me all too often. This is both insanely simple yet insanely tasty, and it’s all hot and ready within 30 minutes! Sometimes you need a break from sneaky ingredients, too. We’ll put plenty of sneaky stuff (like okra and other veggies) in other soups, but not here, so not even a blender is needed. Feel free to add the optional collagen or gelatin for a more balanced amino acid profile, but hey. This recipe is found in the “Big Eats Soups” section of Trim Healthy Table Cookbook, page 151. This recipe is a family-serve recipe that feeds 6 to 8 people.

MAKE A FAMILY MEAL:
- For the weight-loss plan, there is still room in your E quota of carbs for a few crumbled baked corn chips to top this soup. Delish! Or dollop with some 0% Greek yogurt. For a more filling factor, enjoy with a side salad with an E-friendly dressing.
- Growing children or other Crossie family members can enjoy with lots of grated cheese for a Crossover.
