50 Scrumptious Chili, Soup, Stew Recipes (Delicious Non-Vegetarian Diabetic Recipes Book 6)
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until squash is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in Swiss chard and simmer until chard is tender, about 4 minutes longer. Choose tomato products packaged in non-BPA cartons. Looks as good as it taste! I used a fresh squash which requires a fair amount of work to peel and cube - frozen would be a nice time saver. I didn't have any chard. Made this today and Its so yummy!!! I added an extra head of chard, and I used rainbow chard mind you. I added a bag of corn, a bunch of sliced mushrooms, and a ton of cayenne pepper.
I garnished it with guac. I would give it 5 stars if i knew how to add them to comments. Made this for dinner tonight. Added some cooked quinoa in each bowl after the soup was done. It will definitely be a repeat performance for this number. Don't know how to rate this, but I would give it a 5!!! Some say this was a thin soup but the way I made it I had to add an additional 16 oz of tomato sauce. This was OK, but not great. It needed something more to it to make it more chili like.

The butternut squash overpowered the chili. I made it today and ate it for super. I made a double batch and put some leftovers in the freezer. I saved this one in my favorites.
Weight Loss Magic Soup
Added a non-BPA can of tomato sauce, a chopped green bell pepper, and substituted chopped collard greens for the chard. Careful not to overcook the squash. My husband and I really enjoyed this. It made about 3 meals for the 2 of us. I increased the amount of chili powder to 3 Tbls and added a small amount of cayenne.
I did not add the swiss chard. Scooped the hot chili over frozen corn for the children's bowls and mixed it together. Added a hot poblano to mine. Substituted frozen kale for fresh bunch of chard. My squash hating family rated this recipe 5 stars! One of my very favorite recipes from this site. I also brought the ingredients to a boil before adding in the butternut squash, and threw in some kidney beans I had in the frig. We will definitely make this again.
My husband, who doesn't like butternut squash, loved it. I served it with corn bread and hot sauce. Will definitely make this again. Will put this on the menu with the cornbread!

What I didn't like about it was the leftovers. The chard gets really wilted and I cant stand wilted greens. Next time I'll separate the chard and add it to each individual serving.

This stuff was amazing. We had leftovers tonight and it tasted even better the second time around. I like my chard thoroughly cooked, so I just put all the ingredients in at the same time and the chard gets nice and tender. This receipe is delicious!! Even my carnivore son enjoyed it over a baked potatoe. Sometimes if I like a thicker creamier soup, I like to add lentils.
This work especially well for soups that are simmered for longer than an hour. They just fall apart and melt into the broth. They also add a ton of fiber! That being said, I like your option of pureeing navy beans. I have this in my crockpot right now! I used spicy V8, because I love anything spicy! I also used Rotel instead of Italian tomatoes, and black beans and read kidney beans! Emily, you are very kind and patient to repeat your answers as not everyone reads the comments that answer the later questions.
This looks like just what I need for those pounds gained over the holidays. If a week of hot soup in the winter will up my loss so that my usual exercise can go to some more loss, that will be great! And just a quick note to some of your readers— not all are at the same level of experience in cooking. Okay, 40 years ago. Is the serving size for this soup if eating for lunch or dinner a cup? Ha, um a good size soup bowl for me is huge, which is why I am asking what you recommend.
But I see that a serving for most people is a cup LOL. Years ago I tried the cabbage soup diet , it worked I lost weight , but I also had diarrhea and could not get within a few feet of a bathroom. Will this do that as well? To avoid having diarrhea issues, have some whole wheat toast or a banana or some brown rice along with the soup. Sounds like a good, basic veggie soup recipe that I look forward to making. I kept reading all the comments just for the comedy factor!
People are so funny. Not that I know of.. You can definitely try it and let us know! You can definitely make it without any of the tomato products! You can still make a delicious and healthy soup without the tomatoes! Very excited about this recipe! I saw a pic of it and it jogged my memory.
I have at least a hundred pounds to lose as well. Its hard, my husband was obese when we met and having my thyroid fail, getting back on my meds, and unhealthy eating, the 90 pounds I lost have come back to me. I was snowed in with my mom who cooks from scratch, was off meds, lost 90 pounds, so I know it can be done.
Is there any weight loss groups free or forums, that anyone can recommend or attest to from the internet?? I wish everyone well. Ive been eating this soup off and on for years. A chef taught me this, and its awesome. It gives it just the kick it needs. I think that is a great idea! The garlic and seasoning will give the soup the extra flavor it will need without the V8 juice and canned tomatoes. Thanks for this recipe. I made it and loved it.

I added cauliflower and leeks also. Could they substitute for the kidney beans? I made this soup last night it is soooooooooo good I made it exactly like the recipe except I used turnip instead of yellow squash. I am going to do a week of soup and protein shakes and then a week of whole foods and back to a week of soup and so on just to really get my weight loss going thank you so much for such a great recipe!!!
That is a really great idea! I may do the same. Thank you soo much for posting and I will look at your light and tasty on here also!!! Hi, this soup sounds delicious! I am going to try with no salt added tomato paste small can instead of v8. Wish me luck, I definitely need a good kick start. Hi, Just found your site from Pinterest this looks SO delicious!
Hi Emily, Thanks for all the great tips and ideas for this recipe! When you freeze the soup flat, an idea for you to try is to store the freezer bags upright, or file them! Hi, This soup really works!!! I lost 5lbs in 5 days!! I had to get on the scales again before I could believe it. I substituted the cabbage for spinach and used a spaghetti squash. I only had the soup for lunch and dinner not as a snack and I only got 10 bowls. I guess my bowls were big!!!
I even cheated a bit on the last day and had 2 slices of pizza!!! I usually had a protein shake for breakfast, a healthy snack, then the soup for lunch with usually a yogurt, another healthy snack, and then again for dinner with a side. I was never hungry and I missed not having it the next day.
I drank lots of water and execised for 30 minutes 6 times a week. I will definitely make it again. Thanks for the recipe!!! Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I made a batch in the crock pot earlier this week and it came out perfect Cabbage gives me some trouble so I used frozen broccoli and cauliflower instead. This recipe is awesome and just what I was looking for! Boyfriend and I just made this soup today, it is soooo yummy. I will be posting my progress throughout the week!
Do you mind if I share this on my website? Just be sure to credit us back, and we prefer they come to our site for the full recipe. I would like to try the soup but there are some problems: You could blend tomatoes and sub them out for the V8. Feel free to leave out the onions or beans. Use the soup as a filler before eating a low fat meal to help you take in less calories and get your vegetables in.
I sometimes substitute Bok Choy-leaves and stalks- for celery and cabbage.
Vegan Chili Meat Lovers will Love
Hubby and I both love it. Erica you are a Saint with an Outstanding amount of patience! You can just leave them out.. I have suffered from low thyroid problems for many years. All of my life I have been very thin which has always stumped the doctors. They have always told me I should weigh around three hundred pounds. I always laughed it off and chalked it up to good fourtune that I didn! But now I am in my middle fifties and the weight is pileing on at break neck speed! Can this soup help even the people that have medical issues?
I am very interested in the results and will try it. Thank you for sharing something that is healthy and not trying to push those dangerous pills. About 30 years or more ago, my husbands doctor put him on a diet using almost this same recipe. During the years I lost the recipe so was glad to see this, cause it was great. So full of vitamins that we all need! I never used any beans in it. No just eating soup as anyone knows will not make u lose weight, but you can get your protein by boiling chicken, grilling fish, and walking or some type of exercise. The grill fish or boiled chicken you can use as your other meals with steam veggies.
And it does work, and is great for people that have heart problems. You can change the taste around by using different spices. My husband lost over lbs. Being as apples have there own content of sugar, I would bake them with the sugar substitute. By the way we changed our way of cooking food and the types of food we ate. This soup is addicting. Thank you again for the recipe. As far as sodium content you can make substitutes.
Thank you for this comment Pamela! I am so glad to hear you like the soup. Can you specify the ounces of broth. I may have missed you answering this question previously. Thank you for a wonderful recipe. Will be making shortly and without having had it I can from my experience tell it will be very adaptable and delicious. Approximately a year and a half ago I bought a book by Dr. Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease. Though I did not have heart disease I was concerned about being overweight and my health I as I aged.
Your soup is a perfect fit with what he recommends. My father is a retired cardiologist by the way. The premise is that fat is the biggest issue in the western diet. If it had a face or a mother I did not eat it. I truly ate like a horse. Pancakes with no butter for breakfast, really good cereals with lots of fruit, and I love Silk Soy Milk. For many recipes I learned to puree apple sauce with the appropriate seasoning and substitute that for the fat in saute cooking and oddly enough in beans. My wife laments the very well stocked spice cabinet, but does not complain when I use it.
My 20 year old son eats much of what I do. Yes, and no… Let me explain. I lost on average 5 lbs. I ate well, and oddly enough to allay worries about carbs, I had beer, wine, and the occasional bourbon during the whole process; lots of bread, rice, pasta, just not the added fat. It is a lifestyle change. One cheeseburger and it was pretty much over.
The real benefit is that now I tend to overall make better choices. In one to two days following the plan, heartburn and indigestion disappeared, constipation was non-existent, weight begins to melt off, and the craving for fatty, salty, sugary by that I mean refined simple carbs, not complex, goes away. Thank for the Magic Weight Loss Soup recipe!
Thank YOU for this comment Milton! Lots of good information there. Magic or not, this soup is good. Im not even dieting, but i love a good veggie soup, paired with a grilled cheese its yummy. Forget about the diet aspect of it, veggie soup is good anytime and this one is a keeper. I would take it to a pot luck. I am off to the store tomorrow. Need to lose 50lbs. Looking forward to the e-book.
Simmering on the stove now, smells wonderful. I will be using this soup as a quick start tool for a week and then as a filler with a sensible diet. Thanks for posting, found on facebook. Good luck to all of us!!! I make a soup, chili or stew like this every week and they are great. Mostly from the South Beach Diet. I will try the 7 day step and see if I lose weight a little faster.
When I add meat, I add lean turkey or chicken. Even my kids love it. I am a veggie lover and think that these soups are nutritious and delicious! Do you really cook on HIGH hours? That is a LONG time to cook vegetables but especially on high! The directions say to cook in a crock pot. It was also mentioned — that you could also cook this on your stove top hours on medium heat. Choose which method you want. I was allowed to be a picky eater as a child, so now as an adult I have a hard time with a lot of veggies due to taste or texture or even getting up the nerve to try them.
Making tomorrow for my husband and I to take to work all week. Hopefully my picky taste buds will play nice. Can you tell me which NI are correct? The one we put on the site originally had the NI calculated from a website we put in all the information and it gave us the info … the one in the book was hand-calculated by a nutritionist. For years now, I have been using caloriecount. I copied and pasted this recipe I deleted all low-salt references, but otherwise it was exactly as written — and this is what I came up with using 20 servings: It also says the serving size will be g which equals Can you tell me what NI analyzer program you use??
Thank you for the soup recipe. Not only did my husband lose weight, but his cholesterol came down so much, the doctor was amazed!!!! Mine has lots of beans and lots of other stuff. The magic about mine is that you are full before you can over eat. Made it with slight variations as follows: To cut cooking time I parboiled the carrots, squash, and zucchini for 5 minutes and added to the saute mixture of garlic, onion, cabbage and mushrooms I already had going. In addition when I mince garlic, I add tsp.
Was done in 30 minutes once all ingredients combined. This soup is awesome!! We have been doing great. During the day, we have a protein shake for breakfast Cellucor whey protein , the soup for lunch, and a small cup of soup as a snack my boyfriend also eats a can of tuna during lunch. Dinner time is also soup. I always drink a lot of water anyways but I definitely made sure to stay on top of it throughout the day. We never lost our energy. This has been a great boost to our dieting and a great plateau buster. Never got tired of the soup!
That is a great idea!!! Thank you so much for coming on here and sharing your story. Great work and props to both you and your boyfriend!!! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. I love all the veggies. I am wondering about adding some browned turkey burger to this to add a little more protein. Would you have any opinion or suggestions on this? I think cabbage in soups adds a great flavor. I make an unstuffed cabbage roll that is really similar to this, but not quite the variety of veggies, and yes, meat.
I am going to make your soup and do my best to drop those added pounds that have creeped back after losing a significant amount of weight a few years back. Thanks again for sharing your expertise… Also, how much do you eat and how many times a day? My problem is the rest of my family is allergic to tomatoes, so unless I can think of a replacement or my girlfriends all come to visit this will not be made any time soon SAD.
We have great substitutions that you can use in our FAQ section of this recipe… see above…. Wow lady you are awesome…just so freaking patient and kind in your response to people. Keep doing what you are doing you are helping hundreds of folks and we appreciate it.
Love your site and love the recipes. Using common sense and doing a little research and trial and error is key for this soup recipe to work with everyone as a healthy diet to lose weight. Exercise is very important for everyone regardless of whether weight loss or just getting fit. Thought everyone knew this already by now. I made this a few weeks ago! I even found a low sodium V-8 juice that was Hot and Spicy! Added a great kick to it! I made this today to accommodate my tastes and allergies.
I did not use V-8 as I am extremely allergic to carrots. I increased the amounts of chicken broth and used boxed organic petite cut tomatoes. Also I only used fresh vegetables: I used whatever fresh, organic veggies they had at my grocery. I think the fresh rather than canned produce was the key! Thanks for a great soup! Hello, you said to eat a cup for lunch and later a snack.
Would some kind of fruit be good or could you suggest something that would work with the soup. Would you eat any popcorn the week your on it. I found the answer to my question in the comments since someone else asked it, but I wanted to suggest: We will try to be more specific— we have the can sizes in the write-up above the recipe but we will get them down into the actual recipe asap. Thanks for the suggestion! Interesting information about soup recipe!
I have never seen before like this. It is really like a magic for weight loss. Hi there-stopping in to let you know I made this last night. I said nope…we love it as is. I thank you for sharing this-I needed a pick me up and something to get my veggie intake back up. I am so happy you and your entire family liked it! It is always a WIN when the family can agree on something! Great substitution ideas, too. I used spinach instead of cabbage and grande Marsala instead of the Italian seasonings.
This sounds super delicious. And to do it again on and off when I am just trying to maintain the weight off. Thanks for your recipe. The soup sounds great, I think it would be better with a healthy splash of red wine and whole bunch of high fat content beef chunks, a cup and a half of bacon grease, and two hundred potatoes. A great side dish would include french fries, onion rings, cheese sticks and deep fried butter. I realize the weight would probably not come flying off at the rate you would expect by using the original recipe, but, my way tastes a whole lot better!
Would love to try this to get me started in the weight loss. Do you think this would be a problem in helping me get started? You would need to ask your doctor or nutritionist that question. Chris, I am type 2 diabetic also and I gave my Doctor a copy of this recipe and he said he let the Nutritionist look it over and it is fine. In fact he said that they use the same recipe for heart patients who need to drop some weight to have heart surgery. I am using this diet plan and Magic Soup recipe to help me lose the weight I need to lose. This is the best solution I have come across and I am taking advantage of it.
Thanks Echo for keeping this site updated and answering all those repeat questions. Have a nice day as I will when my soup gets ready! Thank you for sharing the approval of your doctor and nutritionist! It is helpful to know. I wish you all the best as you start your journey to control diabetes. I know you can do it!
Do you know how many calories it is and what is the serving size? I will measure it next time. Yes, you can add meat to this soup. It will, of course, change the calorie content, so adjust your diet plan accordingly. But I noticed the second time I bought the ingrediants that the italian diced tomatoes has sugar listed in the ingrediants. Is there any way to do it without sugar and was this taken into consideration for the nutritional content? I use wegmans organic italian diced tomatoes. Thank you so much! The sugar content of the diced tomatoes was taken into consideration when calculating the nutritional content.
Fresh tomatoes are delicious in soups, it just adds a little more preparation time. Please email and let me know, thank you. I made this soup, however, I did not use the mushrooms, but diced up a sweet potato. I ate a bowl for lunch only. I usually eat a low cal dinner such as fish, that is why I only ate the soup for lunch.
I will say this. It was very tasty and satisfying. I felt full most of the afternoon. After five days of eating this I felt good, and know I at least lost a pound or two. The next week I did not eat it. Thank you for sharing your experience. I really appreciate your feedback! I have this cooking right now and it smells amazing.
I tried in my crock pot and I guess it was not big enough. Had to transfer over to a stock pot on the stove top. I thank you for this I have been looking for something with more vegetables. Need to add more to my diet. Not vegetarian, just want to add more veggies. I will have some before I go to work and take some for later. I think this is the only change I made. Did use low sodium V8 and low sodium canned tomatoes as well as organic low sodium chicken broth.
Will let you know how it comes out. I just had my first bowl of this soup. Absolutely my totally favorite from now on. I cannot see myself always having some of this on hand. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I feel empowered on this journey of getting more healthy. So flavorful and the veggies still had a little crunch to them. I need a little jump start on Losing some weight. But I could find where it said the serving size per meal? This soup is delicious! I added spinach and celery along with the ingredients in the recipe.
I even put it on pasta as the sauce for my kids dinner and they loved it! It sounds really good and am going to try soon,and my two questions were answered,by scrolling through! You could probably use a nutrition calculator to find it! Yes you still need to be conscious of what goes in your mouth, along with drinking plenty of water and exercise. This soup is quite delicious and I can honestly say I have lost 5 lbs in 3 days eating this soup with the assistance of a regular exercise regimen and I do not mean busting my tail for hours on end in a gym , drinking lots of water and eating breakfast.
This soup is to help you lose weight, you still have to do the work, like like any other healthy diet. But for the negative reviewers just be quiet, people want words of encouragement and motivation. You are absolutely right.. You still want to eat enough calories to keep you healthy. This is just something to help you feel satisfied thoughout the day without consuming many calories.
Thanks so much for your comment! We are thrilled that you lost 5 Lbs. I have a 1. And what to put it to good use. If I would half the ingredients, would that fit in to my rice cooker? Also, what cooking time should I substitute for the hours cooking time? How is that even healthy??? I hope you like it! It really is a healthy soup and I agree — using real onions flavors it better than the salty soup mix. I followed this for exactly seven days and noticed a change with a daily exercise for a hour and eating 4xs a day. Drinking only water and snacking on fruits and nuts I feel so much bettter.
It was so my guy followed with me. Thank you for sharing this Britney! I saw this recipe on Facebook, looked at it and decided, No, because of some of the vegetables. But I just kept seeing it, and decided to look again. I wrote down the ingredients without the mushrooms and made it, I was so surprised of how much flavor it has. It is very filling. I make extra to freeze, I eat it often, and started taking Probiotics. I feel better and so far I have lost 26 pounds. I may drink one soda a week, but water with lemon and eating better.

Does anyone know the macros per 1 cup serving? You can use kale or spinach as a substitute for the cabbage. Hate to be a pest but does that include the beans? Sorry — do you know the fiber content? The nutritional info was missing the fiber. Do you have it too? She mentioned above that the fiber is 4. They are all just the regular size 14 to 16 oz cans. Good grief, just read the recipe. It is great and healthy Thanks for the recipe! I hate mushrooms, what can I use instead. How long would it take if I wanted to do this on the stovetop?
Simmer for minutes? I may try this in slow cooker. Thinking the exact same thing…LOL! Man, I was thinking the same thing! People need to read! Emily, you are an extremely patient person. Approximately how much weight do you lose in what amount of time? I would do some grilled diced chicken or sausage or meatballs. Try the low salt variety of V-8 also. It tastes really good. I use the v-8 low sodium or sometimes v-8 low spicy sodium. Definately would be interested in that! And thank you for posting this recipe! I would definitely be interested in an e-book as well Erica. I would love it if you would do an e-book!
