"I came up with this recipe during my first phase of Atkins and I needed a break from straight meat and green beans (God, would I love a piece of pizza right now) Nevertheless, I basically just used what I had available at the time, however, my roommate tried this soup and thought it was great. So, I thought I would share it with the rest of you."

  1. I really enjoyed this soup. I sauteed the veggies in coconut oil instead of butter and used red onion along with green and red pepper, because I had some to use up. I also used a 14 oz can of tomatoes with diced chilies instead of adding the chilies separately. I added a 32 oz carton of chicken broth. Everyone else in the family crumbled tortilla chips into the soup, but I only added shredded cheddar and sour cream. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe.

  2. Wow! This is the best soup we've made in months! I used recipe #209677 & replaced the butter with spray + 1 TBL of margarine. I made as directed, except I just let it simmer on the stove for the same amount of time it took to cook the barley I added. (I'm on a low-fat/heart smart diet) This soup was absolutely delicious! Some of the best recipes are simply the ingredients we have on hand. Thank you, Chef #389904 for sharing your recipe! :) Made for the Photo Forum's November Casseroles tag game.

  3. This is a great low carb soup. I am all about soups during the week, throw everything in the crockpot, it doesn't get more simple than that for delicious but healthy and easy meals! I add the black beans and also add a jar of queso to make it sort of cheesy, and it turns out delicious!! And still pretty low in carbs (depending on how "low" your low carb limit is). Both of these ingredients also help thicken the soup a bit.

  5. The soup looks delicious and from the reviews, it sounds delicious. My only concern is where is all the sugar coming from? I reviewed the recipe for obvious culprits that I could possibly swap out for something else, but I didn't see anything. I'm just starting Phase 1 of the Atkins Program, all that sugar and carbs would not be conducive to my success during this phase. Any suggestions on how this could be modified?
