This is a hearty and delicious soup. If you prefer use grated Cheddar or Jack cheese in place of the Velveeta. Taste before salting. Each serving is 1 cup. This came from Obesity Help. I have not tried this, just posting for safe keeping.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup carrot, chopped
1/4 cup onion, chopped
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dry mustard
6 cups chicken broth
12 ounces velveeta reduced fat cheese product, shredded
8 ounces lite firm silken tofu, diced
10 ounces deviled ham (2 cans)
1 cup light sour cream
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
parsley, for garnish
Directions:
1. In a large Dutch Oven over medium heat butter. Add carrots and onion and saute until soft and translucent. Stir in flour, paprika and dry mustard using a whisk. Cook for 2 minutes then slowly add the chicken broth whisking to prevent lumps. When soup is thickened add shredded Velveeta, the diced tofu and ham. Cook on a low simmer for 20 minutes stirring occasionally.
2. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve garnished with a sprinkle of Parmesean cheese and a sprig of parsley.
