ESCAROLE AND TURKEY SAUSAGE SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET PHASE 2)
From most recent book. Haven't tried. Escarole is a hearty green that is just as delicious served raw in salads as it is cooked into soups or sauteed with olive oil and fresh lemon juice. Meatball lovers can replace the sausage with mini chicken or turkey meatballs made with lean white meat.

HAMBURGER MINESTRONE SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET)
I came across this recipe for minestrone, adapted for the South Beach Diet, on the 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet boards a few years ago. It's become a family favorite since. It makes quite a lot of soup, but it reheats well. If making this for the South Beach Diet, watch out for added sugar in the tomatoes and beans-- a lot of canned beans and tomato products have sugar added to them. You can also substitute very lean ground turkey and chicken broth for the beef.

AMAZING VEGETABLE SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET)
This was posted by a fellow SBDer, Mamacita, in the 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet boards. It's a wonderfully delicious, simple, vegetable soup. It originally called for zucchini, but I leave it out as I dislike summer squash. Feel free to add some in if you like, though. I sometimes add in a can of navy beans, rinsed and drained, with the tomatoes. For South Beach Diet, make sure your tomatoes have no added sugar. It makes quite a bit, but it reheats fairly well--or you can cool and freeze it. Don't be afraid of the garlic--it mellows out a lot during cooking.

THAI SHRIMP SOUP (SOUTH BEACH DIET PHASE 2)
From newest book. Haven't tried. This tangy, spicy soup is made with classic Thai ingredients that are easy to find. Look for both chili-garlic sauce and Asian fish sauce in the specialty food section of most large supermarkets. If you have leftovers, simply whisk when reheating.
