This is one of my favorite meals. Pick your protein such as cod, salmon, shrimp, tofu, or chicken. Then add only three more ingredients for a healthy, easy, and quick gourmet meal.

So many people loved my recipe for the spicy Tex-Mex soup I decided to try out another soup that would satisfy a creamy and sweet need. I have been enjoying it as a starter to a meal, a snack or a pre dinner filler when dining out to prevent overeating.  Sprinkle a little parmesan cheese on top, add beans or a little tofu to make it more of a complete meal. I have my friend and neighbor Laurie Cohen to thank for this one as she first experimented with the soup and left some for me that I devoured quickly. Thanks Laurie!

Hot comforting soup is a staple in my house this time of year. I advise my clients to make a big batch of this soup and enjoy during the week with a meal, as a snack or to help fill you up before a holiday party to prevent overeating. Here's my simple recipe. You can get creative and add shredded chicken, corn or beans to make it more of a complete meal.  This recipe is low on calories but loaded with filling fiber and cold fighting antioxidants.
