This soup is filled with colorful veggies, lean chicken, and savory broth. But let’s face it, the real reason we love this soup is because of the garnishes! Elevate your experience with toppings - load up on green onions, avocado, cilantro, a zing of fresh lime juice, and even a little sour cream. So delicious!

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 red pepper, cut into a 1/2 inch dice

Directions:
1. In a large soup pot, sauté the red pepper and onion in the olive oil until the onion is just translucent. Add the garlic and sauce another 2-3 minutes.
