Ok, I cooked it! This soup is DELICIOUS! I love it! I baked some tortillas strips(using the Mission brand 2 for 1 WW point THIN corn tortillas-cut and sprayed with PAM) to top my soup and skipped the cheese and hot sauce. I find the green enchilada sauce spicy enough. :)

Extra-special thanks to Pam, who inspired us with her swap for Chili's Chicken Enchilada Soup. YOU ROCK, Pam, and so does this soup!
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
Directions:
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.
Enjoy!!!

I just finished lunch and a few loads of laundry. I am going to bust out the Wii Fit in a second and play a couple of games and do some of my physical therapy home exercises. I am NOT enjoying all of the rain we have been having for OH, the past FEW weeks! I feel like the next time I see the sunshine I am going to RUN outside and never come home! lol Seriously, it's been awhile here! I was so excited about lunch that I really did not think about what I am making for dinner! lol Probably something easy! If you saw my shopping loot I really only picked up FRESH stuff- I tried to shop at home first and see what my pantry had for me to work with. Maybe a pasta dish tonight...we shall see!
Oh! Vitalicious is having a sale for Valentines day. So I treated myself to it! lol I love the muffin tops and I just finished my chocolate ones (I had some brownies) from my last order. DEALS HERE!
Have a great day everyone! BYE! :)
I've been looking for a good soup recipe- perhaps this will be the winner!
ReplyDeletep.s. rain is not fun- and neither is snow! Why can't the world always just be sunny-shiny? :)
Thanks for this recipe. It looks so yummy! I will definitly be trying it.
ReplyDeleteI started salivating when I read the ingredients. No joke. Funny how the brain works.
ReplyDeleteSkip the hot sauce? Weenie!
ReplyDeleteOooo! I bought a container of cooked chicken from TJ's and froze it in two portions. Now I know what I'm doing with the second portion. This sounds fab! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThere's pumpkin in that soup? Sweet! And, bring on the hot sauce.
ReplyDeleteSoup looks great - I am going to put this on my list of soups to try.
ReplyDeleteIt rained all weekend here and now that it is work it was not - cold but ay least not wet too.
Shopping at home is best :)
I love chicken tortilla soup! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYour haul from the store was a major score!
And now I'm off the get some Vitalicious!

Did that soup taste like the soup at Chili's? If so then this soup is a must try!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteawww sorry about the rain! I hope that you can see the sun soon!
ReplyDeleteSounds good and you can't beat the calorie count.
ReplyDeleteThat soup looks good. I am trying variations on lentil soups and black bean soups.
ReplyDeleteI am excited about trying new recipes. That one looks good, it is something to keep in mind.
Hope the sun shines soon!
Why do I not know what green enchilada sauce is?? And three cups of it?? Not very often I am stumped by an ingredient. Maybe another of your Canadian readers can tell me where I could buy that here.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious!!
Thanks for another great recipe!! okay, I'm coming over for dinner, LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try this I think. I wish I like soups more or maybe I should say I wished I liked broth based soups more. I love tomato or chowder.
ReplyDeleteYum, I love vitabrownies.
ReplyDeleteI FINALLY just made this soup tonight! It is fantastic! My supermarket had boneless, skinless chicken breast on sale yesterday so I put it all in the crockpot this morning and shredded it for the soup when I got home. Plus this recipe makes 9 servings,so I froze half to have another night. YUMMY!!
