I've made this soup several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken or rice. I also like to add some chopped spinach or kale for extra nutrition.

This is a great soup for a cold winter day. It's warm, comforting, and filling. I love the addition of lemon, which gives it a bright and refreshing flavor.

This soup was easy to make and so delicious! I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this soup again.
