Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Soup recipe
Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Soup recipe
With warm chunks of carrots and sweet potato in a rich chicken broth and a little coconut milk, this soup is pure comfort food. It’s great for people who want something really rich but get turned off by the texture of pureed soups. It’s for people who got an end-of-winter bug and don’t feel up to a big meal.
