Chick'n Chili Verde Soup

 You are all going to love my latest soup creation "Chick'n Chili Verde Soup".  It is absolutely delicious and can be served with some homemade wholegrain breadsticks (shown above), or some healthy tortilla chips crushed into the soup.  Also, don't forget your raw organic greens on the side.  I started this soup creation by using one piece (2.5 oz.) from the product Gardein Chick'n Scallopini. This is a plant-based product that you can find in the frozen section of your health food store. One piece has 2 grams of fat ,14 grams of protein, 30% of your iron needs and 2 grams of fiber. It was a very nice addition to this soup and adds some extra nutrition. I know you and your family are going to love this soup.
