  • 9

Ingredients

  • 3 cups fat-free chicken broth
  • 1 1/4 cups finely chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup diced sweet yellow onion
  • 3 cups green enchilada sauce
  • One 15-oz. can pure pumpkin
  • 10 oz. cooked boneless skinless lean chicken breast, chopped or shredded
  • 1 cup frozen white (or yellow) corn
  • Optional: dash hot sauce, or more to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded fat-free cheddar cheese, crushed baked tortilla chips

Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot, bring broth to a low boil on the stove. Add celery and onion, and simmer for about 5 minutes, until slightly tender.

Stir in enchilada sauce and pumpkin. Once soup returns to a low boil, add chicken and corn, and mix well. Cook for an additional 3 - 5 minutes, until soup is heated throughout.

Add a dash or more hot sauce. (Or not. It's your soup.) Serve and, if you like, top with shredded cheese and/or crushed chips.
