This is a low fat, low cholesterol, and low calorie recipe! But seriously, the chicken broth adds lots of taste! It is wonderful, light soup that is perfect for nice crisp Fall evenings. This fed Cory and I with a healthy portion left over for Cory's lunch tomorrow. I think this would be a very good recipe for company, it was very pretty in the bowl.
