Simple, delicious comfort food for a long Canadian winter, nothing fancy here. After a day on the outdoor ice rink, I used to return inside to this steaming hot soup. Serve with crackers or toast.

Added some leftover chicken. Kind of bland. Won’t make it again. Didn’t care for the flavor.

I made a few changes but for the most part followed the recipe…..I use beef broth and I’ve added zucchini…and I use (eye ball) more broth and tomato juice….I have a big pot and with the extra veggies gets crammed in there….BUT….TASTY AF
