Cook's Notes
This soup contains far less sodium than canned varieties and takes only a minute or so longer to prepare. If your child prefers particular veggies or only one, adjust for preference! To lower the sodium even further, "from scratch" chicken broth can be made by cooking fresh chicken in small amount of water to cover and simmering til chicken is done.
