I have to share this recipe for the best chicken soup ever! It is so good and all of our kids LOVE it! We rarely, if ever have any leftover, its that good. This recipe is not your classic chicken soup, it’s entirely different and you must try it. You will definitely agree that its the best chicken soup you have ever had!
The best chicken soup ever
What makes this the best chicken soup? It’s the southwest flavors and the ability to cater to your own taste buds. What I like to do is make the soup base then let everyone add in the other ingredients. Some of us like more spice, some like more cheese and others don’t like chickpeas. Giving everyone the ability to specialize their own meal makes everyone happy, including mom and dad! I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as our family does.
This soup my whole family loves! We will eat this soup anytime of year, but if we are batteling a cold this is our “healing” soup. Buen Provecho!
