    I didn’t know weekday to cook for dinner and I had all these ingredients except the chicken. This was easy to put together. We prefer creamy, ticket soups and my family loved this thanks for sharing!

    I just made this and OMG!!! I only had beef bone broth on hand. It came out way thicker than your video, but holy soup! Delicious isn’t enough to describe how incredibly yummy this is!
