So quick to make and it made the perfect amount for DH and my lunch. Used 2 small b/s chicken thighs but otherwise followed the recipe. Will be a great soup for the winter! Made for PAC Fall 2011.

This is a very good quick and easy soup. I found I had a bit too much chicken, so added more veggies and broth. I also threw in a couple of sliced baby portobello mushrooms. I cooked the chicken the night before and chopped the veggies, and threw the rest together when I came home from work at lunch. That's how quick this comes together! This is a very thick and hearty soup, very filling! Thanks for sharing your recipe....made for PAC Spring 2011.
