How Many Flex Points in Ground Beef
I LOVE this soup!! It's a hearty, filling soup that is only 4 Weight Watcher FreeStyle smart points per serving. This soup takes chili and tacos and puts them together. You can fill up your slow cooker with this soup, eat it for dinner, and then enjoy the convenience of eating the leftovers for lunch for the next couple of days afterward. (or if you are like me you will eat it for breakfast and lunch the next day.)
