I am glad you are playing with it, I do the same thing and the recipe is very forgiving.  The main idea is to balance the more bitter tasting veggies with the sweeter ones so that you don't really taste one note.

Where did all the fat come from? 2.5 ounces of lean chicken breast has about one gram of fat. Did you use dark meat or a chicken broth with fat?

Not sure about the fat ..I used chicken breasts only and reduced sodium chicken broth from Trader joes's.
Lots of things have fat even if you don't think that it does.
It just what myfittnesspal came up with

Actually, when I look at the stats, something is wrong with the fat. The fat can't be 13, that would be 130 calories. And there is nothing with much fat in the soup. Might be a typo? Maybe it's 1.3 grams of fat. That would make more sense. Almost all of the calories come from the protein, and at 4 calories per gram, that would make sense.

I looked again and not sure what I was looking at , but the fat is 0.
Oops!!

No worries.  That sounds about right.  The stats on this soup can't really be beat.  It is also quite filling.  As a matter of fact, I have to eat less of it now because I got too thin.  :)  Never thought I would have that problem.

I find it difficult to believe that one cup of this chicken soup has 13 grams of fat. Veggies don't have that much fat and the low fat chicken broth doesn't have very much. I'll have to check my calculations, but the fat content seems off.

I am sure it is 1.3 grams, not 13 grams of fat.  :)  Just count the calories.  10 grams per fat gram and only 4 per protein or carb gram.
