Week 4: Poject Weight Loss

I would definitely say this week has gone MUCH better than the previous weeks.

I will give credit to:

• My low-point soup

• Actually writing shit down

....EVEN when I've gone out

• And, in general, wanting to actually stick with it

Katy's 1.5 Point Corn Chowder  - Crock Pot Style

(I'm following the old point system, so this will not be the same for the point-plus people)

• 1 14.5 oz can whole kernel corn
• 2 carrots, sliced
• 1/2 cup diced sweet onion
• 2 stalks celery, sliced
• 1 cup (fresh or frozen) green beans, broken into 1” pieces
• 6 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup Mushrooms (I used brown crimini)
• Medium red bell pepper (I used 2 because I looove them so)
•  One package dry Country Gravy (for spices)
• 2 cups non-fat Milk
• 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
• (you can add whatever other veggies you like)

Chop all veggies and throw them in the crock pot.
Add broth
Set to low for 8 hours
After 8 hours combine the gravy package and milk, stir then add to chowder. 
Add cheese.
Stir and enjoy!
