    What a great easy soup!!! I used yellow squash instead of zucchini, added fresh garlic and followed the rest of the recipe. Full of flavor, healthy & simple!!! My whole family really enjoyed Will definitely make again.

    The soup is delicious, but requires a few changes/additions to make it shine. No good italian woman is ever going to make this dish with boneless, skinless chicken breasts and I suggest substituting with chicken thighs because the breasts will dry out far too much during the cooking process, and add little flavor to the soup. Also, keep the skin on while the meal cooks, it adds a lot of flavor. You can remove the skin after cooking if you like, but I leave it on.

    I use plain canned tomatoes, and add fresh oregano and basil (add them towards the end, if you add fresh herbs too early in the cooking process, their delicate flavor is lost, and I also add a good amount of black pepper, salt, and a dash of red pepper for some heat.

    Finally, I like to add in whole wheat egg noodles if I want to make the dish heartier, especially during the winter months.

    All in all, it is an easy, fast soup to make, and it is also an easy recipe to modify and make your own!

    My kiddos, Hubby and I all love this soup. It is so easy to make. My kids can help chop veggies while I cook the chicken.

    This is also a great recipe to take to families in need. I've delivered it to families who are grieving the loss of a loved one, and to families who are celebrating the arrival of a baby. Everyone loves it!

    While I would not freeze any leftovers, it does reheat well from the refrigerator.

    This soup is so easy! The hardest part is the chopping. It's also easy to customize with whatever vegetables you prefer. I omit the zucchini because I don't like how it gets stringy in the soup, I add more carrots, celery, and some pasta. It's delicious!

    This was so easy to put together. Some how I miss the zucchini when I made my shopping list but it still turned out great! I just added a little more carrots & onions and a little garlic (can't have too much of that!. I was concerned about no extra seasonings but the soup tasted very good. This is going in the keeper file to make again. Thanks for a great show.

    very good! This is the 2nd time I made this. This time I added a can of beans and some frozen corn. I also seasoned my chicken w/ S&P and rotisserie seasoning. This is so easy to make and taste soo good. Love it.

    Very Tasty! It was my first attempt using my new dutch oven, what a great way to break it in! It was so simple, inexpensive ingredients and so healthy! My hubby doesn't like chunky tomatoes but he even liked the soup. I imagine it will taste even better tomorrow for lunch! I followed the directions exactly except I seasoned the chicken with salt, pepper, italian seasoning and just a touch of poultry seasoning. I also added garlic with the onions and tossed in a bay leaf while it was simmering. Will make again! Thanks Paula!
