Start by bringing the chicken broth to a boil. Add the chicken breast pieces and simmer. As the chicken is cooking, chop the magic trio veggies. Add the veggies to the simmering chicken stock.
If you are looking for a way to speed this soup up even more, use a leftover rotisserie chicken or home canned chicken and pre-cut veggies from the grocery store. You could have it made in less than 20 minutes! Who doesn’t love a quick soup like that?
