I’ve been talking up this soup to anyone who will hear lately. I’ve made it for just about everyone in my family. Across the board, everyone loves it! It’s more like a stew/chili than loose soup. It’s easy, nutritious and a one pot wonder, which is any moms’ dream come true!
For the kids I’ll add baked scoop chips for dipping and lots of shredded cheese. For the grownups I’ll throw a side of whole wheat baguette and call it a day!
I’m lazy so the recipe calls for rice and I settle on one of those Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice. I also use ground turkey breast which is incredibly low in fat. I frequently double to keep a meal in the freezer.
Happy Dining!!!
