Hi Group, In the winter I love to use a slow cooker or crockpot to make stew or hearty soup. I don't
use a recipe..so how do I figure the points?
Here's what I made today... 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (almost like chicken strips) 1 cup
frozen peas 1 cup frozen green beans 1 can each drained garbanzo beans and small northern beans 1
cup baby carrots, tossed in whole.(put them on the bottom so they cook fully) 2 cans sliced stewed
tomatoes, plus juice. 2 T minced garlic 2 T italian herbs salt and pepper.
I am also going to add 1 c seashell pasta towards the end of cooking. 1 cup of water...I may add
more water later on, too. Think minestrone without the kidney beans! ( I loathe kidney beans) It's
all low fat, and no added oils. Teresa
