I've added a can of black beans to this recipe and it is delicious! Extra fiber to keep me fuller longer! :)

Where do you find the chicken broth without yeast extract or sugar? Even the organic one I found at HEB had this. I could make this tonight if I could find the right broth. :-) Thanks!

Kitchen Basics broth does not have the sugar or msg. HEB's organic broths started adding sugar. I found that one out the hard way. We like to add squash too.

I forgot to add you can make your own and freeze it for future use.

Kroger brand, Naturally Preferred Organic, is yeast and sugar free! I have hunted.

I'm new to cooking and I'm confused by these directions. #1 says "add bouillon cubes to water and bring to a boil" but there aren't any bouillon cubes listed in the ingredients section. And when do I add the 4 cups of chicken broth?

April, I believe the bullion cubes are to make the chicken broth (does that make sense?).
This is a tastey recipe. I like to add a big mound of thinly sliced cabbage on top. It adds a little crunch (like crunch of taco chips).
Stephanie, I'm excited to try adding the black beans.
Thanks, Ann

Socca bread would go great with this. You use garbonzo bean flour. It is on the blog spoonfulofsugarfree.

a can of rotel is a zesty addition

Found the chicken broth...thanks! Making this for dinner tonight. I'm going to bake my chicken rather than boil it (hubby hates boiled meat). I'll also try the black beans and some cilantro. Has anyone ever thickened their yeast-free soup with garbanzo flour?
Michelle McKissick Date 1/17/2012 8:48:35 PM
Well, it turned out delicious! I found some great, fresh salsa at HEB that I used in it. It was a hit! Thanks for the recipe!

I have used arrowroot. It is much like cornstarch
Michelle McKissick Date 1/18/2012 8:37:51 AM
Good to know, Sharon...thanks!
