Soups like this make week-day lunches easy
Top off this delicious soup with plain Greek yogurt, or serve it with a lime wedge, or whole-grain tortilla chips or crackers. It’s perfect with a side salad. Beans are a great vegetarian protein source and are high in fiber and a good source of iron, folic acid and potassium, too.
