Sometimes diet food is flavorless and boring. There are only so many ways to enjoy steam vegetables and grilled chicken. Break out your crock pot and get ready to eat something delicious. This soup recipe is your ticket to good food and a trimmer waist.
The key to losing weight is to consume fewer calories or increase exercise. It’s actually better to do a combination of both. However, some people find it hard to find flavorful recipes that keep their taste buds happy and their bellies full. Soups make great “diet” food because they can be filling and easy to make. However, not all soups are created equal. Creamy based soups can be high in calories and fat with little to no protein or fiber to keep you full. This Slow Cooker Weight Loss Soup is perfect for dieters or anyone looking for a healthy soup to add to their weekly dinner rotation.
The soup is vegetarian and vegan-friendly as well. It’s full of delicious and vitamin-packed vegetables cooked in a flavorful veggie broth. The veggies are packed with fiber which will help you stay full longer. If you want to add protein to the soup, it’s easy to do with a can of beans, chicken broth or even diced chicken breast. If you are not a fan of some of the veggies in the recipe list, swap it out with the one you like. The soup is super customizable!
The best part about this soup is that it’s literally a dump and go recipe. Pop all of your ingredients in your slow cooker then set it and forget it. It can’t get much easier than that.
