Very delicious soup. Very versatile. You can make this with stewed tomatoes, or v-8 juice or veggie broth instead of chicken broth. You can eat this every day and never get bored simply by changing things up a little. Vary the seasonings. Add chili powder and kidney beans, or try adding a little pasta and some leftover beef chunks and italian seasoning for a minestrone. Let your imagination be your guide.

This recipe makes 12 servings and keeps in the refrigerator up to 5 days. It's quite versatile--add shredded chicken and serve tortillas on the side to make it a main-dish salad. Or serve it as a dip with baked tortilla chips, a side for burgers or grilled chicken, or a salad on a bed of lettuce.

When a fast easy to make dish is needed, I make this and cook it on the griddle. I use
ketchup as a garnish, I accompany it with rice
topped with black beans...or cheese grits and spinach or turnips.

"This is one of my favorites because it is easy, fast and simple and versatile. If you like brown rice, I recommend using it in this and all recipes. It takes a bit longer to cook but is worth the wait, for both nutrition and taste. There is an instant brown rice on the market now, too."
