This is one of my all time favorite comfort food meals. I don’t know why but every time I make this Soup it hits home and takes me back. EVERY TIME! Maybe mom used to make this back when my life was at it’s best point or something? Back when I was 7 and life’s biggest worry was would I be able to go to my best friends sleepover that Friday. Lol!!!
This meal is also really stinking cheap. It basically calls for things that are already in your pantry. So here is the soup recipe that is just so comforting to me. Also, I would like to add that this soup tastes alot like Campbells Chicken And Rice soup so the kids should love it. I know my daughter always eats so much it makes her sick so I have to force her to stop!
