Recipe to contribute

Hi,
New to the newsgroup, but a long-time Weight Watcher Lifetime Member.
Thought I might share a recipe I really like for a hearty Slow-Cooker
soup. Winter's not too far off!

1 can chicken broth (16 oz)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 red, green or yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 can pinto beans, undrained (16 oz)
1 can whole kernel corn -- drained (16 oz)
1 can pork and beans (16 oz) - I used Campbell's
1 can sliced mushroom stems/pieces (16 oz)
1 1/2 to 2 tbsp chili powder to taste (I used McCormick's)
2 cans diced or chopped tomatoes (16 oz each)

Note: Yeah, I know you can't get 16oz cans anymore. Get as near as
you can.

Put all ingredients in crock pot and simmer all day.
Makes 8 1-cup servings. Leftovers freeze well.
Each serving:
170 cal, 1.2g fat, 8g fiber, 2.7 ww points

if you switched the pork and beans to the other beans it would be core, Lee
