It is my favourite soup of all time CP, lovely for guests because generally no-one has ever had it before.

I made this earlier today Judy and it's delicious! I used 5 chicken drumsticks as that was what I had in my pack.  They fit in with no problems. Will def add more veg next time as there's enough liquid to handle it. I also added a cube of Umami paste and a sprinkling of chicken stock granules.  Feel like it's done me good.  :D

That's what chicken soups does Julie, a good all round pick-me-up meal.  Your photos make our recipes look sooo good ;)

Judy do you think I could use chicken wings instead if drumsticks? Or do think they will get stuck under the blades whilst cooking :P Found a couple of packets in the freezer. ;D

I've never tried them CC but if you cut them into 2 pieces and discard the tip, it might work.  Would they be too fatty though? You might have to refrigerate the soup overnight so that you could remove the fat once it has set..

Made this soup today as all feeling low with flu virus. We all know the benefits of chicken soup and this one hit the mark for taste and feel good benefits. Loved it and will be a regular in our household. Very tasty :)

Loved your chicken and veggie soup Judy but you also mention your goulash soup. My husband loves goulash soup so can you  please tell me where to find your recipe? My DH could live on soups, curry and casseroles no matter what the weather. I guess that's because we were born and raised in the beautiful Scottish weather.....Lol  ;D

Please forgive me from a previous post a couple of weeks ago (I have apologised privately), as there was a mistaken identity  :-* :-* :-*

It did, JD - many thanks - also a little surprised that I had all the ingredients on hand.  Used three chicken thighs and a parsnip instead of a turnip - but it was just a marvelous soup.  Will be making more over the weekend - :D  This is the first cold/fluey thing I've had this season, and it's a doosey . .  >:(
