Simple soups are definitely a comfort food for me and with the cold weather here, now is a great time to make a big pot. My mom always made this Mixed Vegetables and Chicken Soup for lunch when I was growing up in Colombia, always serving it with white rice, tomato salad and avocado on the side. I grew up eating soup at least once a day and one of things I crave the most when I’m homesick or not feeling well, are Colombian soups.
This recipe has the classic flavors that I always associate with traditional home cooked Colombian soups. The great news is that this amazing bowl of soup couldn’t be easier to make and you can have it ready in an hour!
