A beautiful body in the works……….

Sometimes it gets a little costly to go on a diet……..but maybe you would like to try this inexpensive idea.  Make vegetable soup………it works if you make it homemade…..NO MEAT. 

• Start with a medium pot….
• Dice 1 onion…
• 8-10 regular sized carrots…(slice in large, bite sized pieces…they take longer to digest if they are larger)…
• One bunch of celery….(8-10 stalks of celery)…(slice in large, bite sized pieces)…
• 1 large can of tomato paste…

Please note:  you can change these ingredients around…add or use less, etc….it’s up to you…just vegetables only.

Over medium heat, pour about 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the bottom of the pot; saute the onion (with a little garlic, if you prefer); continue with carrots; then celery….put a lid on the pot and steam for about 15 minutes.  Then add tomato paste and fill the pot with water just above the vegetables.  Add salt and pepper to taste; parsley, and any other seasoning you enjoy.  Stir well and cook till tender.  If it seems a little boring, put in a small potato, but no more (they are fattening if you eat too much).  Fill with more water if it gets a little thick.  This can last for a few days…keep refrigerated. 

Soup is filling…….You can eat all you like……..and it has no fat!      Have a very beautiful day!   http://www.waimomona.wordpress.com/
