Hg's Chinese Shoestring Soup
By Avera
Ingredients
-
4 cups fat-free chicken broth (or you can use fat- free vegetable or fat-free beef broth)
-
3 medium scallions
-
1 small carrot
-
1 small zucchini
-
1/2 medium red pepper
-
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce, light
-
4 lemon wedges (optional)
Begin by cutting all veggies (scallions included) into matchstick-sized strips (use a vegetable shredder if you have one!).
In a large pot, combine all ingredients except for the scallions (and lemon wedges). Bring to a boil. Once soup has reached a boil, reduce to medium heat (a low boil) and add scallions. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, until veggies are limp.
If desired, serve with lemon wedges for a citrus-y touch.
