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 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.
I have been making this delicious soup for many years. It is a family favourite and I have served it at many catering functions over those years too.
It is a very quick soup to put together and it is nice to freeze as well.
In time, I would like to develop the recipe further to give the choice to pressure can. 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 . I made this recipe as part of a YT collaboration called SOUPTEMBER. 30 other channels participated and shared their favourite soups as well.

This soup goes well with my stunning bread rolls. You can find the recipe from my video Three Types of Flour for Bread Making | Which is The BEST??
I hope you give this soup a try and please leave a comment if you do.
