  1. Nicely flavored soup. On hand ingredients will definately put this in my regular rotation. However, be aware that overnight it becomes much less than a soup and more like noodles with liquid. I did like it.
     
  2. I did not expect this soup to be this wonderful. It's ingredients are simplistic but the combination is divine. I used Pace Hot Salsa and Alphabet Noodles. I also added a bit of sour cream to the top when I served it to cool the heat of the salsa. I have been sick for three days and this soup just cleared up my chest and i can breath! This is my new chicken soup for sick days!!! Try it! You will love it!
     
  3. This was delicious. I didn't expect a lot, since there were so few ingredients. I cooked mine in the crockpot, and used bone- in chicken...removing it and shredding the chicken. I added some salt. Wonderful!
     
  4. Simple and good. Made exactly as written and it was enjoyed by the whole family.
     
  5. Different, fast and easy to make. A nice change.
