I use shredded chicken in my chili, and if I add any meat to my marinara sauce it's locally made, sweet, Italian chicken sausage. My soups are generally ground meat free, but I do use organic, uncured ham in my split pea soup and chicken in my chicken vegetable soup. And I love lentil soup - all colors.
