Preparation

Make it now:

  1. Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker and stir gently.
  2. Cover and cook for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low setting.

Make it ahead and freeze:

  1. Place a large freezable bag standing open in a bowl; this will keep it in place when adding ingredients.
  2. Place all ingredients except broth in the bag, seal, and lay flat in the freezer.
  3. When ready to eat, remove from freezer at least 1 hour before cooking.
  4. Place contents in the slow cooker, add broth, cover, and cook for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low setting.
Tips

Once cooked, use a hand blender to liquefy the soup.

Make it authentic: top with fresh cilantro, lime juice, and 1 tbsp Greek yogurt.

Perfectly Balance Your Plate

Serve on 1 cup cooked basmati rice. Top with 2 cups baby spinach or kale.
