Hi Emily,

Thanks for your question, and your kind words about the Chunky Potato Soup – it’s a favorite of mine as well! I’m sorry to tell you, though, that at this time we are unable to provide nutritional analyses for our recipes. However, are you aware of the USDA's Nutrient Database? You can access the nutrition information (including calories, fat, fiber, sugar, carbs, etc.)  for thousands of foods -- from simple ingredients (like onions or spaghetti) to prepared foods (like tomato sauce or chicken nuggets). The database is online at www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/cgi-bin/nut_s.pl.

In addition, I can tell you that if you’d like to keep the calorie count down when making the Chunky Potato Soup, be sure to use skim or reduced-fat milk, and maybe cut down on the amount of cheese – using 1/2 cup (instead of 1 cup) would still make a delicious soup. And finally, you might want to check out the recipes that are tagged  “Healthy” on Grandma’s Kitchen: www.grandmaskitchen.com/tag/healthy. Although they are not specifically developed to be low-calorie, they are relatively healthy and you might find some dishes that fit in with your eating plan.
