Notes
- Using a really flavorful chicken broth or stock will make the best base for this soup. You can also add in a bit of Better than Bouillon to amp up the flavor as well.
- We start with leftover roasted chicken or rotisserie chicken to keep this recipe quick and easy.
- We find that carrots we shred ourselves are more likely to soften up nicely in the soup. If you're using shredded carrots from the store, add them in with the celery and onion to start the cooking process a bit early.
