Notes
Substitute chicken with turkey for a different flavor profile.
Use kale instead of spinach for a heartier texture.
For a thicker soup, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with cold water and stir into the soup.
Add a pinch of nutmeg for a warm, aromatic touch.
Garnish with crispy bacon bits for an extra crunch.
