This Soup is very satisfying. Yesterday, I was feeling a little sick so I was craving soup. Good thing, I had chicken breasts in the fridge. I browsed the internet for amazing recipes. This was probably the third recipe I saw. What I love about this is the cheese. It gives a nice flavor to the soup. So, just a piece of advice, be very generous with the amount of cheese that you are gonna put in it. If you happen to have bread, just brush butter and sprinkle with garlic. Toast until the garlic turns brown. Serve this soup with the bread you just toasted. Oh man, it’s the best! Feel free to add more ingredients to this soup. It is awesome as is but you can make it perfect by giving it your take. Enjoy!
