You can do low calorie with actual food without breaking the bank.
My daily driver has 32g of fiber per roughly ~650 calories (2×2 cup mason jars) Lentils, barley, potatoes, green beans, carrots, bell peppers, corn, cremini mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, pinto beans, black beans, spinach, onions, tomatoes. Hits all of the major vitamins and minerals.
Costs about $100 a month, in Alaska (so probably cheaper elsewhere).
It’s really flexible. Can be turned into a soup or heated up as is, works with all sorts of seasoning. Can add meat if that’s your thing. Also leaves a lot of overhead for other food. I try to stick between 1000-1100.

You either need a hug, food assistance or both. I will help you with both if you need. Happy Holidays.

Why the celery? You could just have the broth… are no other veggies allowed?

VeryConfusedBee

Do you dislike yourself, have allergies, or are you just broke like everyone right now? Because sheeeeshhh at least saute the celery. Sending you love and hopefully better food to come ❣️

Nice time cook it and then blend and add a little milk or cream and you get a nice cream of celery type soup
Salvisurfer
At least put some tinned fish or oysters in there dude

Did you….. Did you even sauté the celery or did you throw it in there raw?

Why does it look more like a celery cereal than a soup? Did you not at least steam the celery or did you make soup and cut fresh celery into it … cuz 🤢
Ronin_1999
Honestly this is closer to cereal than soup.
But then again, can cereal be considered soup?

Your celery is waaay to big if chunks. Need to be slices if under 1/4″ closer to 1/8″ I know this recipe. You should also have cabbage,onion and carrots. Needs to cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours minimum with your broth. Pouring hot water on a raw vegetables is not making soup by any stretch of the imagination.

Is that just broth with a raw chopped celery stalk?

OP you need calories to live and this is just a bowl of salt.

You could have made this a lot better for the same amount of calories, with just a little effort.
You could have cooked the celery for a start, sautéed to start it off & give it a little more flavour than just boiling alone.
Then if you really wanted to push the boat out, once it has softened, blend it together. You will get something a lot closer to cream of celery soup, a thicker, tastier soup. And to make it actually creamier without cream, add in a dollap of fat free greek yoghurt. It’s low calorie & will bring a little protein to the table.
This is more depressing than it needed to be.

You didn’t even cook the celery 😂

Negative calories..

Do you like it? Do you enjoy the crunchy raw celery in hot broth? I wonder if you could make something better in the microwave.
Slice celery and toss with salt, drizzle with oil and microwave for a few minutes, tossing every 30 seconds. Maybe you’ll soften it and get a touch of browning? Then add the broth and microwave a bit longer, simmer the celery in the broth.
It might end up being a lot better for only a tiny bit more work. But I guess if you like it your way…I just can’t imagine it’s actually good.
CommercialBubbly961
If you cooked the celery longer than 12 seconds, you could make a celery soup you know.
I like to add chives and carrots.
