This soup is the perfect rainy weather meal. It’s loaded with veggies and chicken and comes together in a creamy broth. It’s comfort food that makes you feel good! Pair your soup with some fresh bread and Sea Salted Butter and a dollop of Natural Yogurt if you want it EXTRA creamy.
To keep this soup simple, we always use a store-bought rotisserie chicken and shred it, but cooking your own is always delicious – the Instapot makes for super easy shredded chicken! Our family’s secret ingredient in many home-cooked soups is adding a Lipton’s Chicken Noodle package. It keeps things super easy and adds so much flavour! Trust us on this one!
