My Famous Creamy Chicken Soup

This soup has been literally served to a few thousand happy people. It was a firm favourite at my Cafe and Catering business. It is also a family favourite and I get asked for the recipe by anyone who eats it. I hope it becomes a firm favourite for you as well.

For as long as I can remember, I have been making this delicious soup. I have served it as a family favourite and also at many catering functions over those years.

It is a very quick soup to put together and it is nice to freeze as well.

I would like to try and develop the recipe further so I can pressure can it. That would be a game changer for me!

I have made this soup on my YouTube channel. Click here to see just how easy it is to make My FAMOUS Creamy Chicken Soup | #SOUPTEMBER . It was part of a YT collaboration called SOUPTEMBER and 30 other channels shared their favourite soups as well.
