If you like minestrone-you’ll love this minestrone. The chicken meatballs cooked in the soup really take this soup to the next level! You can use whatever veggies you like but I found the ones used in this soup to give the best flavor combination!

Bacon, potatoes and leeks-you couldn’t ask for a better combination in a soup! It’s a meal in a bowl! Don’t be afraid to use plenty of salt as the potatoes really can stand up to a lot of seasoning! If not using homemade stock, be sure to use stock that is low or no sodium!

A deeply complex tasting sauce…well worth the time and effort to make. This is a great dish to make on a lazy Sunday. Makes unbelievable leftovers. If you have the time make this 1 day ahead and let all those delicious flavors marry overnight.

An easy stock that can be used for chicken soup and for many sauces and recipes. This stock is easy to make and will give you sauces a depth of flavor unattainable from store bought. Remember not to let your stock boil, as this will create a cloudy stock that will look unappetizing when you use it in soups.
