Yup it is chicken soup weather here in Jersey! Cold, snowy and wet! Not my favorite but I do love making a big batch of chicken soup to have on hand for lunch, dinner and to freeze for a quick meal another day. You always hear that chicken soup heals the soul and it is so true! There are many healing properties in the chicken stock. I personally used bone broth in this batch and it was so tasty! When picking a stock make sure you check the sodium count on it as many of them can have some in the hundreds! Eek! Opt for low sodium and organic whenever possible. Broth is pretty cheap too. I usually get the store brand that is low sodium and organic.
