7 Can Soup

25 minutes

In the spirit of the Fall season, I decided to make a hearty soup for one of our Saturday night dinners.  I saw an episode of "The Pioneer Woman" and she prepared a simple soup, which of course, was made with 7 cans from her pantry!  Here is my take on her recipe:

Ingredients

1 - 15.25oz. can corn w/ red & green peppers

1 - 15oz. can meat-only chili

1 - 15oz. can kidney beans

1 - 15oz. can pinto beans

1 - 15oz. can black beans

1 - 15oz. can diced tomatoes

1 - 10oz. can diced tomatoes w/ green chiles

8oz. block cheddar cheese

12oz. diced grilled chicken

Empty each can into a large pot over high heat.  Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes.  

Add the pre-cooked diced chicken, and allow to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Dice the cheese, and stir into the soup until melted.  Serve with out or without sprinkled cheese & sour cream on top!

ENJOY!
