I used fat free chicken broth instead of water to make up the liquid. I didn't cook it quite as long and added the green peppers at the end as I like my veggies a little crisp.I think this soup is very good for a low cal item. It is easy to make and there is lots of it!The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it seems to me that no diet item can be perfect!

I also used chicken broth in place of the water, and the soup was good but the tomato flavor was a bit overpowering for my taste. Thank you.

I have used this recipe for a long time and love it. If I substitute the soup for 1 meal a day and watch what I eat for the other 2 meals I can lose weight very nicely at about 2 lbs per week which is just right. You can be adventurous with it and put any veggies in it. I roasted the garlic before adding it this last time and it really added a nice flavor to it.

Gets a 5 star because it's packed with veggies, easy, tasty. Also because my 6 yo "snuck" a taste while it was cooling and then proceeded to have a full bowl. She consumed her daily fluid needs as it has a bit of a bite for her. Very good and I already have plans to make it a more hearty soup by adding browned burger and rotini pasta to a portion of the leftovers.

A very good soup. I use the low sodium V-8. Also you can make it a meal by adding some cooked chicken tenders, cubed. Then add some corn starch mixed with water to thicken.Served over rice.
