In the wintertime, I like to switch to soup instead of salads for lunches. It has long been a diet secret that soup helps you lose weight. Being prepared and having healthy food easily accessible is one of the best ways to avoid food temptations and I think that having healthy soup in the crockpot is a great way to do this. You can go grab a bowl anytime you get hungry (if you’re a SAHM like me).
My Vegetable Diet Soup: Tomato sauce, water, celery, cabbage, onion, green beans, mushrooms, carrots, spinach (any vegetables you want except starchy ones like potatoes and corn), garlic, salt-to-taste, and I like to add chiles, beans are also a good choice, but I would make sure that vegetables are the biggest part of the soup and not the beans.
