Let's face it. When everyone around you is coughing and sneezing, you have no hope of escaping the illness of the season. The best thing you can do is stock up on tea, get a pair of fuzzy socks, and grab a cup of soup. I don't mean pre-packaged cup noodles or ramen. I'm talking about a fresh chicken soup loaded with veggies and real chicken breast.
This soup recipe is very simple and adaptable to your tastes. It starts with a chicken bullion broth, then  vegetables, noodles, and chicken can be added however you want. For this batch, I grabbed a variety of veggies from my dining hall salad bar.
