A Delicious, Healthy and EASY Soup Recipe

2 Jan

First of all, I have to give credit where credit is due. I came across an awesome blog called meals and moves written by Janetha. She provides wonderful recipes lots of fitness inspiration.

One thing I knew I wanted to try right away was her recipe for chicken & white bean salsa soup. I modified it just a bit due to the fact that I don’t have a large crock pot.

So all I did to make it work for me was boil the chicken first. I used a mixture of 1/2 chicken broth, 1/2 water and boiled the chicken for about 10 minutes until I could shred it with a fork. Then in a large pot I combined the chicken broth, salsa, pinto beans, corn, chicken and cumin and DONE! I’m letting it simmer for a while right now…can’t wait to chow down.

Note: I don’t have a lot of spices on hand so the cumin was something I had to purchase. It was kind of expensive, around $4.50, but it is definitely worth it to enhance the flavor of the soup!
