This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. It's also a great make-ahead meal. I like to make a big batch on the weekend and then freeze it for later.

This soup is the perfect comfort food. It's creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. I love serving it with a side of salad.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

This soup was easy to make and very flavorful. I added a little extra garlic and paprika to give it a bit of a kick.

This soup was a little too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think I'll try making it with less cream next time.

This creamy shell soup was a hit with my family! The flavors were rich and creamy, and the shells were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this soup again.
