Chicken Soup With Rice

Submitted by Nova Scotia Cook

"This recipe was one that I received from my Mom (now deceased). Don't know where she acquired it. Mom was always one for trying new recipes and this apparently was one that met with her approval and mine too, I might add. Great comfort food I like to serve during one of our chilly Nova Scotia winters."
