Notes

Use my whole chicken bone broth. This is one of my favorite ways to make this recipe! I start by making my whole chicken bone broth, and then use the chicken and broth to make this soup. You can most definitely just make it with the ingredients listed, but this is by far my favorite way to make bone broth!
