When I tell you that I have been living off of this soup, I am not exaggerating. It makes enough to feed a large family, and Aaron doesn’t really eat chicken or carrots, and Parker hasn’t mastered a spoon yet, so it’s basically soup for me :)
It’s pretty simple as far as recipes go, and it’s so hearty and just cozy as we’re starting to have more of these cold days. I originally got the recipe off of Cooking Classy, and it’s just so good I had to share!
