CHICKEN, WHITE BEAN, SPINACH & PARMESAN SOUP
I had something very similar at a neighbors house and it was so delicious. After getting the recipe I played with it just a little, made some additions and have an even better version of the original. I hope you like it, too! For a quick, throw-it-together soup that is ready in practically no time, this is it.

Steps:
- 1. Cut raw chicken into cubes and season with salt and pepper. Either brown in a little olive oil, in a Dutch oven, or set aside raw.
- 2. To Dutch oven add broth, granulated onion & garlic, corn and crushed red pepper; bring to a boil. *If you browned the chicken stir well to get the browned bits and drippings incorporated into the broth. Add chicken then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes.
- 3. Add diced tomatoes, V-8, beans to broth, stir and bring back to a simmer for 15 minutes.
- 4. Stir in baby spinach and basil. Continue cooking soup until spinach is wilted and chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes longer. Taste and add salt & pepper as needed.
- 5. Ladle into bowls and top with Parm. Enjoy!
- 6. *TIP: For a richer flavor pan sear the chicken breasts before or after cutting into cubes. Brown on both sides in a 1 T butter and 1 T olive oil. When browned remove from pot and set aside. *Options: Use Turkey or Sweet Italian sausage instead of Chicken
Tips:
- To save time, use canned or frozen spinach. Just be sure to thaw the frozen spinach before adding it to the soup.
- If you don't have white beans, you can use another type of bean, such as Great Northern beans or cannellini beans.
- To make the soup creamier, add a cup of heavy cream or half-and-half along with the chicken broth.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.
- Leftover soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
