Quick Soup Recipes for Clean Eating

There’s nothing better than a quick soup for a great meal. I love making a big batch of soup so I have extras for future lunches. The awesome thing about making a quick soup is that once you get everything in the pot, all you have to do is wait, giving you extra time to get things done or take a seat and relax. If that sounds appealing to you, I’ve got 3 great quick soup recipes for you to try!
