Just to verify: when you say, “Remove the flavor packet from the beans and save for later use,” you mean to use it in a different recipe altogether, and you do NOT use it in this soup, right?

I only have canned beans available, how much should I decrease the liquid?

Hey Chrissy…I would love to be able to use frozen chicken breast for this recipe. How would I alter the recipe to do so?

Thanks!
