Chicken Corn Soup

Recipe #277567 | 30 min | 30 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: dawnie2u

This recipe is from Marsha Adams' book, "Cooking From Quilt Country". It was given to me from a poster on another board, cheezz, who is a fantastic cook. It freezes well, so you might want to make a double batch and freeze half of it. To reheat, thaw in fridge overnight, and gently reheat it until very hot, but not boiling. I would add some cooked rice when you add the chicken or some chopped cooked potatoes to make a really hearty meal. Serve with some hot bread and a green salad.
