Chicken Fajita Soup ("Clean Recipe")

A little cheese and fresh cilantro on top makes for a yummy finish! 

Dinner was yummy tonight! Our family has been battling nasty colds for almost 2 weeks now so tonight soup sounded like a fabulous thing for dinner! I came across this recipe on pinterest, but as usual, decided to change it up a bit to make it my own rendition. We also have been making an effort to eat pretty well. I hate thinking about all the weird and wacky ingredients that are in so many foods. It makes me shutter to think they use things like wood pulp to keep shredded cheese shredded. So here is a great recipe that is "clean." If you aren't familiar with "Clean Eating," it means that you eat foods in their natural state or as close to it's natural state as possible.

Enjoy!
