One of my all-time FAVORITE soups!
This is a very healthy recipe. I found it in a Prevention magazine a few years ago, and make it often.
My little boys love the noodles in the soup, and end up eating the healthy vegies that are also in it.
If I am grilling chicken (on the stove-top) I make sure to grill an extra two. That way when I go to make this soup the next night, it takes one step out of the process.
If I have any Parmessan cheese on hand I will sprinkle a little bit on top of the soup before I serve it.
I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
