Easy Smoked Pork Chop Soup



Our soup is quick and easy to make since mostly everything is pre-cooked however it's so basic and easily adaptable.


If you have time to cook the beans from scratch using dried from a bag or substitute fresh-cooked chicken stock instead of water and fresh diced tomatoes, this soup can be adjusted and made either way.


Of course, many other additions you prefer can be added and we will give you a list of suggestions for add-ins below that can make this simple soup into an even heartier all-in-one meal!
