Description

A creamy and satisfying high-protein soup that combines tender mixed vegetables and hearty protein for a quick and filling meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup milk or plant-based milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream or Greek yogurt

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Herbs (thyme or parsley) for garnish

  1. Sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until they soften and become fragrant.
  2. Add in the mixed vegetables, stirring them occasionally until slightly tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat and whisk in the milk and heavy cream or Greek yogurt until fully combined.
  5. Stir in your choice of cooked protein, simmering the mixture for about 5 minutes to heat through.
