Ingredients to Make This Easy and Hearty Soup Recipe

The base of this soup recipe is made with chicken or vegetable broth and refried beans.

I prefer the taste of black refried beans to pinto, but either is great!

The combination of these two basic ingredients will give this soup recipe a thick and creamy base.

Next you need canned tomatoes with peppers.

For a more zippier soup add tomatoes with chipotle peppers or tomatoes with jalapeños.

But if you’d like a more mild soup, use a can of RoTel tomatoes with diced green chilies.

And the final ingredients in our hearty soup are canned corn and canned chicken breast.

That’s it!

It’s really that easy.

And the best thing is, you can keep these basic 5 ingredients in your pantry for a delicious and fast dinner any time!

Just serve it with a green salad and a slice of toast and you’ve got a complete and satisfying meal in a manner of minutes.

Is the Soup Adaptable for Vegans or Vegetarians

Yes, this soup is suitable for vegans and vegetarians!

In fact, all you need to do is substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth and leave out the chicken breast.

The rest of the ingredients are vegan-friendly, so this soup will be a delicious, hearty meal that everyone can enjoy regardless of their dietary preference.


How Do You Make a Soup More Hearty?

If you’re looking to make your soup even more hearty, there are several ingredients that can help.

You could add in some cooked beans or lentils for extra protein and fiber, or stir in some chopped vegetables such as carrots, celery and onions.

If you’re feeling adventurous, why not try adding diced sweet potato for an extra dose of comfort.
