While I have a version that is rich and creamy chicken rice soup, I really love this version of free milk. One of these soups would be the perfect recipe for winter (and maybe a cold). Without the addition of heavy cream, this version is much lower in calories but don't skimp on flavor.
It continues for several days in the fridge or freezes beautifully when there is leftover – but I doubt it will happen because everyone will want seconds!
