For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken stock instead of reduced-sodium broth and bouillon. Feel free to add other vegetables such as peas, corn, or green beans. For a creamier soup, stir in a tablespoon of heavy cream or sour cream just before serving. Store leftover soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
