Chick fil-A Tortilla Soup
If you’ve read The Gingham Apron for long, then you know how much my family loves Chick fil-A! Yep, that’s us!
We love everything about Chick fil-a: their legendary service, their generosity, and of course their food. While the chicken sandwiches are divine, our family has also come to love their tortilla soup. It’s creamy, hearty, flavorful, and super healthy.
So, I’m delighted to tell you that I’ve been making it at home, and it tastes just like the restaurant version. Something unusual about this soup that makes it SO healthy is that the broth is made by blending two cans of great northern beans. This makes the soup really creamy and comforting without adding lots of calories. Win, win!
I also love that this soup is made mostly from canned goods, so it is economical and easy to keep the ingredients on hand. Whip it up for your family soon! Serve it with some great tortilla chips or strips and a few lime wedges for a fun, fresh dish.
