I know I have already posted about a chicken soup but this is worth sharing for a few reasons: I utilized leftovers from a rotisseries chicken (yes, the same one I used in my pepitas salad), I added ground flax seed (ah-ha children) and I was thrilled to use the Nature’s Promise Vegetable Stock that Stop & Shop now carries. Oh, and the kids loved this much more than that
well known kids canned soup-yuk. Go Mommy!
