Can I Add Meat to This Recipe?
As written, the 15 Bean Soup recipe is gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan, but this recipe is easy to change to suit your needs. If you don't want to make this as a vegetarian soup, you can add these types of meat to this recipe:
- 1 pound cooked and drained ground beef or turkey
- 1 pound cooked and drained sausage or kielbasa
- 2 cups cooked and diced ham
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken or turkey
Since you only need a small amount of meat to add to the soup, this recipe is a good way to use up leftover turkey or ham around holidays like Easter or Thanksgiving. If you're adding extra meat to the soup, you may want to add an extra 2 cups of broth.
Serve This Soup With:
- Sweet Cornbread Muffins
- Easy Brazilian Cheese Bread
- Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread
- No Knead Peasant Bread
- Sweet Honey Cornbread
