Do you ever have those moments where you open your fridge and wonder what to cook for your family? I do all the time. I was having one of those nights where I had a lot of veggies to use up and some left over chicken to use. After pulling everything I had out and surveying what I could make I realized I had enough on hand to make a chicken noodle soup except I wanted to make it grain free so I use a couple of my zucchinis to create zoodle noodles instead of using egg or regular noodles.

I would like to make this, there are 8 serving, how many cups per serving is it?
Amee says
Hi Sharon,
Each serving was roughly a little over a cup with veggies, meat, and broth. This should make between 10-12 cups of soup.

Hi! I would like to add cannellini beans. Would I just consider it 1 red container instead of 1/2?
Amee says
Hi Michelle,
Beans are considered a yellow so if you put in a can of beans I would add a 1/4 – 1/2 yellow depending on serving size.
