Extra-special thanks to Pam, who inspired us with her swap for Chili's
Chicken Enchilada Soup. YOU ROCK, Pam, and so does this soup!

3 cups fat-free chicken broth
1 1/4 cups finely chopped celery

Wowowow! Wonton Soup
PER SERVING (1 cup with 2 wontons): 115 calories, 3g fat, 541mg sodium,
12g carbs, 1.5g fiber, 1g sugars, 9.5g protein -- POINTS® value 2*
This soup is so good, you may become addicted to it. No worries -- there are
worse things to become obsessed with...
Ingredients:
For Wontons
9 oz. raw lean ground turkey
2 tsp. reduced-sodium/lite soy sauce
2 tsp. dried minced onion
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. black pepper
16 small square wonton wrappers (often stocked near the tofu in the fridge
section of the market)
For Soup
6 cups fat-free chicken broth
2 cups dry broccoli cole slaw
1/3 cup canned bamboo shoots, drained
1/2 cup canned straw mushrooms, drained and roughly chopped
1 tsp. chopped fresh ginger
1 tsp. chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped scallions
Directions:
To make the wonton filling, combine all wonton ingredients except the
wrappers in a medium bowl. Mix by hand until evenly combined. Set aside
(and, duh, wash your hands).
In a large pot, combine all soup ingredients except scallions. Bring to a boil
on the stove. Reduce heat to low and allow soup to simmer for 10 minutes.
Lay three wonton wrappers flat on a clean, dry surface. Scoop a spoonful
(about 2 tsp.) of filling into the center of each wrapper. Moisten all wrapper
edges by dabbing with water. Fold the bottom left corner of each wrapper to
meet the top right corner, forming a triangle and enclosing the filling. Press
firmly on the edges to seal. Set aside, and repeat with remaining wrappers
and filling.
Stir scallions into the simmering soup. One at a time, carefully add wontons.
Make sure they're submerged, but don't stir. Simmer for 5 minutes, adjusting
temperature if soup begins to boil, until wonton centers are firm. (Don't
worry if the wontons fall apart a little. They'll still taste delicious!)
Carefully serve up wontons and broth. Slurp 'n chew, people!
