Spicy Shrimp Soup

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup diced carrot (2 large)
  • 1 cup chopped onion (1 medium or 1/2 large)
  • 1 cup chopped red pepper (1 whole)
  • 1 can corn (or 2 cups frozen kernels)
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp butter (or substitute 67% oil spread — not the “light” variety)
  • 1 tsp your favorite hot sauce – divided
  • 2 tsp citrus grill seasoning (spice mix) – divided
  • 8 oz chopped raw shrimp

Set 6.5 cups of water to heat with 2 tablespoons chicken base.

Spray 12-inch frying pan with cooking spray and saute carrots until warm and beginning to soften.  Add onion, pepper, corn and garlic, saute until soft.

In a smaller pan melt 1 tsp butter/substitute,  add 1/2 tsp your favorite hot sauce and 1 tsp citrus grill seasoning before adding chopped shrimp.  Cook and stir until just beginning to turn pink.

Add veggies and meat to simmering broth, taste after 5 minutes or so.  Add the remaining 1/2 tsp hot sauce and citrus seasoning if you want a stronger hot or savory flavor.

1 point per 1-cup serving.
3 points for 2 cups.
