I am very happy to share this post with you. So many editing problems, but thanks to Michael I can greet you personally. What I love about this recipe is how simple it is as it is only made with just with vegetables, chicken stock and milk. Now, I was very excited to use almond milk, but I could not find the one I was looking for in stores so I used cow milk from Vacas Felices. I will keep you posted when I find the milk I’m looking for… Español aquí.
This soup is perfect as an entrée or you can also enjoy it as a main dish. What I love the most about it is how nice it looks with the croutons and Parmesan cheese. In the post I am including how to make quick chicken stew and croutons, in case you want to make it at home. For the croutons stale bread is best don’t worry if you have fresh bread. It all works. Hope you enjoy!
