Spicy Chicken Soup by Ashley
Just imagine, the winter weather outside, and the need for a nice hot bowl of soup inside. Okay so frankly we live in Arkansas, so we just have to pretend we have the winter weather outside, and make some soup anyway!
During our co-op Christmas party, we had a potluck. You know, there is always those dishes, that everyone wants the recipe for. Well Ashley’s soup was one of them. This was one that adults and kids were bragging on, so hey you can’t go wrong there!
