  • 2 medium leeks (white and light green parts only)
  • 2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
  • ½ cup thickly sliced celery
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Chicken Noodle Supersoup isn’t your grandmother’s chicken noodle soup. It’s spicy, with lots of vegetables including broccoli and leeks. Spices like garlic, crushed red peppers and the heat of the soup helps with the throat, decongestion by breaking up mucus and helps fight viral infections.
