For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon bits or substitute with smoked paprika for a smoky flavor. Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired soup consistency. Fresh herbs like thyme or parsley can be added during the final simmer for added flavor. If you don't have cream of chicken soup, you can make a substitute with a roux, chicken broth, and cream. For a smoother texture, you can use an immersion blender to puree part of the soup before adding the green beans.
