Is the picture included really of this recipe.  I'm concerned that it is not.  I just can't see a can of "not drained stewed tomatoes" allowing the broth portion of the soup to remain the same color as chicken stock.  Just curious.  I'm sure the recipe is delicious, just worried mine won't look so appetizing. 

amylynnreel I hear ya, but as I look at the picture, I do see stewed tomatoes in there!  

An actual healthy hungry girl recipe, yay!  I enjoy making chicken and Dumplings--a HUGE batch--then I freeze half of it.  It's great to have it as a ready to go meal.  Just defrost and heat.  

I'm wondering, does Bisquick make a whole wheat variety?  That's pretty much the only thing in my recipe that isn't as healthy.  Although, since I'm typically only eating half and I can eat whatever I want, I don't mind the regular variety!

How can I eat whatever I want and STILL lose weight?  It's easy!

Do you think this recipe would work without the chicken? I am a vegetarian but would like to cook some vegetable soup in a crockpot. Maybe add more beans? Reduce the cooking time by half?

Ok, I made it with two minor adjustments. I used broccoli slaw rather than cold slaw and I didn’t drain & rinse the white kidney beans (horrors). Well anyway it's delicious and in my opinion a great dish. The soup Nazi would be proud!

Marileejikey,

I make a tasty veggie soup using:

1/2 head of chopped cabbage

1/2 Cup each: Peas, green beans, sliced carrots, diced potatoes and whole kernel corn

1/4 cup each celery, mushrooms and onions

1 large can of diced tomatoes (reduced sodium)

enough tomato juice to cover

Put all in a large pot, simmer until all the veggies are semi tender.  Surprisingly this has a kick to it although there is no pepper...use any vegetables you like omit the ones you don't...I have used zuchinni, cauliflower, yellow squash, kidney beans...whatever I have on hand.  Recipie can be adjusted and you can use coleslaw mix in place of the head of cabbage.  Enjoy!
