You'll enjoy this light soup, feeling naughty for the rich creamy texture.  Fear not--it is  relatively low in points and quite filling.  Serve with a fresh green salad. 
(Pssst!   It's okay to skip the bread.)

4c. vegetable broth
4 small thin-skinned potatoes, scrubbed and quartered
2t. salt
2t. turmeric
Dash of pepper
1t. butter
6 small boiling onions (or ½ c. chopped onion)
1-8oz. package of whole baby carrots
1-9oz. package of frozen cut green beans
1-10oz. package of frozen petite green peas
2c. fat-free evaporated skimmed milk
3T. whole-wheat flour

Heat broth in large soup pot.  Add potatoes, reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes.   Add salt, turmeric, pepper, butter, onions, carrots, and green beans and cook for 10 more minutes.  Add peas and cook for another 2-3 minutes until vegetables in pot are tender, but not mushy. 

Serve immediately.  Serves 6.  Each serving is 4 WW Points.
