Re: Recipe: Very Easy Tomato Veggie Soup

Wow, that sounds delicious! I didn't realize peas were legal. (I

was on the Southbeach Diet before starting SCD and there are a lot of

similarities, so I had just assumed that peas weren't legal on SCD

since they aren't allowed on Southbeach.) I'm so excited to be able

to add another legal vegetable choice!!

How many servings is this? Have you ever made a huge batch and frozen

individual servings?

Thanks again for the recipe!

Keep in mind that SCD is NOT a low-carb diet, like Southbeach.

Thanks Patti, I realize that. It's just that so many of the illegal

veggies were the same between the two diets (corn, potatoes, etc) that

I didn't even realize peas were OK. When I started the SCD, I was

just going to give it a 30 day trial to see if I felt better, but I

was worried that I would also start gaining weight after losing so

much on Southbeach. I had planned to go back to SouthBeach if this

diet didn't make me feel a lot better. It was hard for me to get used

to the idea of using honey since that was illegal on the other diet.

Amazingly, I have continued to lose weight on SCD and even broke

through a barrier I never could seem to get below on Southbeach. I

think that getting diagnosed with a dairy allergy right after

Christmas and giving up the dairy was a big help. Anyway, I love peas

and am really looking forward to adding them back as a vegetable

option now that I'm doing SCD full-force and no longer worried about

putting all the weight back on. Thanks again!

I adapted the recipe from here:

http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Colenes-Easy-Tomato-Vegetable-Soup/Detail.aspx

But frozen mixed vegetables contain corn so I added legal frozen vegetables I

already had,

green beans, and peas, and made my recipe to serve two helpings. I did it b/c I

had a bad

cold and could not go shopping so needed to use what I hda on hand.

I always " Google " anything I think might be good and adapt it to be SCD legal.
