Notes

Tips:
Substitutes and variations-
This soup is a great recipe to use up extra veggies in your vegetable drawer, and depending on what I have on hand I'll make it with ground turkey or beef. You can also use brown rice in this recipe, though, I would recommend cooking the rice first then adding it to the soup after the veggies have cooked. To make this lower in carbs you could replace the rice for cauliflower rice and use your favorite brown sugar substitute like swerve.
Freezing soup-
Freeze soup in 10-16 ounce freezer safe containers with a tight fitted lid. Soup will keep in the freezer for up to 6 months.
