Suggestions

When you have leftovers after the holidays or party, make this soup, you can add anything to it and it’s wonderful.
-
Try adding fresh spinach, cut up add in about 5 minutes before serving.

You can use any meat, shred turkey, shred roast beef or pork, if you use another meat or don’t want to do your own chicken stock, use 4 cups of Chicken Broth

This is a make it your own soup.

We eat this year round, mostly I think because it’s a great solo-lunch for me.

It’s very good without meat, it will be a 0 Point meal with no meat.
