Recipe Notes
I used about 1-½ teaspoons of curry powder and vegetable broth instead of water. Also skipped the slivered almonds and used my high-powered Vitamix to blend this tasty easy soup to silky smoothness.Click here to see your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site.2*SmartPoints (Green plan)2*SmartPoints (Blue plan)1*SmartPoints (Purple plan)3*PointsPlus (Old plan)Nutritional Estimates Per Serving (¼th recipe - with almonds): 117 calories, 4.3 g fat, 18.4 g protein, 4.3 g fiber, 4.1 g proteinWeight Watchers PointsPlus: *4 (with almonds)Weight Watchers Freestyle SmartPoints: *3 (with almonds)
