Warming Chicken Soup
"This chicken soup is a lot more than just a plain chicken soup, it’s a meal in its own right. Besides, it can be served any time of the year but when the weather turns cool, this soup is an absolute staple. It is packed with vitamins and proteins, and you can add whatever you like: chicken, beef, lamb or pork. But if you want to keep it vegetarian, you can add beans lentils chickpeas, you name it. Make it entirely your own and I promise you it is going to be a delicious bowl of soup."
