White Bean & Chicken Soup

Ever since I got married and realized how much 1 man can eat, I try to make dinner recipes that will last us a few days! I love cooking, but making a meal every night is not my favorite! So I have found that soup is one of my go-to recipes to incorporate lots of veggies, protein & fiber while also feeding us for several days. Even in the warm summer months, I can house a bowl of soup. Just keep the temperature in your house cooler :)
