LOWFAT CHICKEN GUMBO SOUP
A soup with the flavor of chicken gumbo, I adapted this from a friend's recipe to keep it low fat and low calorie, but still has plenty of flavor! Don't let all the ingredients scare you, it's easy to make with ingredients you probably have on hand (well, except for the okra!). You can probably substitute a can of tomatoes (drained) for the fresh tomatoes.
