Commercial soups are generally high in sodium, and they contain preservatives to extend their shelf life. Another problem with pre-made soup options found at the grocery store is that they typically lack the amount of protein necessary for a proper bariatric diet.

Even the beef and chicken soups labeled “hearty” lack an adequate level of quality protein.

As always, the Bari Life team provides a recipe that leaves out the useless items, and instead, contains life-affirming ingredients, including Bari Life Chicken Bouillon Protein Soup.

The fresh ingredients and Bari Life Bouillon add flavor and high-quality protein to this recipe.

Make the most of your weekend, and whip up a pot of this tasty chicken soup for your weekly meal prep. This is the perfect meal for anyone who seeks the comfort and nutritional benefits of a homemade soup.
