Notes
We use homemade low sodium chicken stock.
If you do not have an immersion blender you can let the soup cool for 20 minutes and add it to a food processor or blender- be careful this will still be very hot.Â
This soup freezes and reheats well so you can double the recipe and have some ready to go.Â
