Note

Feel free to experiment with this soup! Add protein by adding IFL Great Northern Beans or leftover turkey. To enhance the roasted flavor of the soup with some smokiness, add a few rehydrated IFL Chipotle Chiles while simmering. Add a little Native Wise pure maple syrup or Chantico Raw agave syrup to balance out the saltiness. Be creative!
