Raquel Welch's Wonder Soup I - {To Lose Weight} Recipe - Cooking Index
Not unlike the cabbage soup diet, but heartier and even cooked in a little oil. It's a great soup and one that you should eat to excess to lose the maximum amount of weight, according to Raquel. Plus you're not on a strict regimen and can take breaks from it as your life demands. You also have a lot of discretion in its making -- you decide what and how much. Make a big pot and demolish it...make another pot....
