My review
Curried Chicken Soup with Chickpeas and Cauliflower
USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
"Beginning with my Fast Chicken Soup Base it is easy to knock hours off of the cooking time usually needed for homemade chicken soup and still end up with soup that tastes even better than the 'from scratch' method. With a little creativity you can easily make two varieties of these soul-satisfying meals."

We would give this recipe a 4 1/2 stars if it were possible. We think we'll add some extra spices and maybe some garlic next time and leave out some of the water in the fast chicken soup base. ...
