Notes: This is a great, hearty, comfort-food soup. I have also made it on the stovetop because I didn't start it in time. Came out great! Once it comes to a low boil, reduce heat and simmer about an hour. My mom came across this as a Weight Watchers recipe, but there are many variations and this is the one I've made most often.
You can alternatively do it on the stovetop; after bringing to a boil, simmer until vegetables are soft and chicken is cooked through.
