We enjoyed this soup on a cold rainy fall evening. Because we were trying to lighten it up a bit I eliminated the margarine and flour, added a bit of corn starch to thicken in up, used fat free condensed milk. I know the roux would have made it even more decadent. Thanks SKDIup.

Made this for several neighbors (& definitely have to make it again sometime just for ourselves!), using cooked, shredded & chopped chicken breast, then following the recipe for AN OUTSTANDING SOUP! Great comfort food, & a definite keeper of a recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]
