I love chicken soup so try this wonderful chicken white bean soup without the added fat and salt. Serve with a salad, whole grain bread, and a small glass of a dry red whine.
You can also substitute turkey for the chicken. One of the things I love about the after thanksgiving dinner is all those wonderful leftovers you can reuse in various ways. If you would prfer a Chicken Chili watch Chef John’s video
