Hi Everyone! We had another COLD snap in Minnesota this past week, so Andy & I decided it was time for some homemade soup! We found some recipes online and created our own spin on Chicken Parmesan Soup. It was AMAZING and it gave us enough leftovers for two more days! So, if you’re in the mood for something warm, cheesy, and delicious, check out our recipe below!
