If you love garlic as much as I do, load it up. The more the better. A homemade easy to make Chicken Noodle vegetable Soup is perfect especially because I decided to pay homage to the mid-West and northern states that’s getting all of the snow and blizzards. I think in my mind, it gave me another reason to hold on to winter just a little bit longer and pull out all the soups. Everything I chose at the farmers market for my veggies were totally in season and that made me a happy girl! You know that warm and fuzzy feeling you get.. yep that one from a nice warm comforting soul that feels like you’re getting a big ol’ hug from a close loved one. I have formally decided that I will no longer stall until winter whenever I want Soup, sooo year round, whenever I’m in the mood will be a soup day. Prepped and made from scratch in an hour, you will desire this quite often! It’s healthy, low in caloric value and has the most incredible burst of flavors! I went back for seconds and you will too. Enjoy!!
