This entry was posted in Recipes on by .

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ cup diced green onion
  • 2 medium carrots, chopped (1 cup)
  • 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 can white kidney beans 19 oz. (rinsed and drained)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon parsley flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 dried bay leaf
  • 5 ½ cups of chicken broth (64 oz.)

Directions

  1. In 3-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic, onions and carrots; cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender. Remove bay leaf.

FLAVOR BOOSTER: For additional flavor SERVE WITH 2 TBSP of your favorite organic salsa.  I like to buy organic salsa that is prepared with FRESH chopped tomatoes and ingredients instead of mashed tomatoes.

MEAL TIP* FOR A HEARTIER MEAL ADD ½ CUP OF PREPARED WARM BROWN RICE TO BOTTOM OF YOUR BOWL BEFORE ADDING THE SOUP.
