SOMERSIZING CHICKEN ENCHILADA SOUP



Somersizing Chicken Enchilada Soup image

This is a recipe from the website that other Somersizers have posted - said to be terrific and it fits within the guidelines. I saw many used a rotisserie chicken - bet that would add come nice flavor and speed to this dish! I enjoyed Somersizing last time around, and OBVIOUSLY need to get back to it!! ;) Enjoy!! Appears to be Level One meal - but there is an additional section for anyone wanting to make it a LEVEL TWO meal. **Original posting called for 3tbsp of tomato paste, but most reviewers semed to like the recipe changed this way, so I am posting as such.

CHICKEN CON QUESO SOUP



Chicken Con Queso Soup image

A recipe that is based on a few others I've seen, but I've modified it to be more my taste. Variations: You can leave out the chicken for a meatless option. You can also swap out the chicken broth for vegetable broth to make a vegetarian version. For those watching calories/fat, fat free cream cheese can be used or neufchatel. Mild Ro*Tel could be used if you're afraid of the heat/spice of original Ro*Tel
