After tasting a similar soup in a restaurant, I went home and cooked up my own version. It's so soothing on a winter evening served with crusty French bread. For a change of pace, try substituting ham or turkey for the chicken.

This soup is so creamy, tasty and easy to make. Perfect for those snowy, wintry nights with a fresh slice of bread.

Very easy--and all of the ingredients were things I had on hand. ALL of my children and my husband liked this and said I could definitely make it again. Even my littlest, 22 months, ate it and asked for more!

An excellent soup! Really nice chicken flavor with the heartiness of vegetables. Definitely a winner!

The soup was excellent. I plan to share the recipe with my daughter. I added two stalks of celery, chives and lemon pepper (no salt)

I gave the recipe to my son and daughter and we all would make it again. It is a very good soup.

We enjoyed this soup, along with my in-laws. I used 1 tsp. of salt and 1/4 tsp. of pepper.
