Cream of Chicken Soup image

This soup makes a great meal on a cold winter night. Just add a salad and some hot crusty french bread. This also makes a first course for dinner. I like to make this when I have left over baked chicken. If using as a first course or appetizer servings would be for 4. If using as a main dish servings would be for 2
