When you and your family are sick, sometimes you have the energy to cook, but other times, not so much. Here is a list of mom-recommended chicken soup takeout, premade and recipes.

Veggie stock topped with cilantro, green onion, and black pepper, $13.50

“Chicken noodle soup is a universal comfort, but it's typically a thin, clear broth with delicate noodles and demure chunks of meat. (Yum). This chicken soup is definitely NOT demure. It's a thickened broth amped up by peppery heat, loads of ginger and cilantro, and chunks of chicken fat and meat. This miracle of a soup nursed me back to health after a 3-week prolonged, gross illness. It's just perfect.” -LW | https://www.instagram.com/laothaitoronto/

“This recipe turned out perfectly!! The stomach bug hit my son and I so I just couldn’t handle real food yet. This was easy and delicious!! I used chicken broth and topped it off with parsley and parm. Will definitely make again but I don’t need the stomach bug as an excuse. Thank you for sharing!” - Jodi | https://www.instagram.com/yummytoddlerfood/

“Made this last week and can’t wait to make it again – my family just loved it! Simple and easy to make – I did cheat by using rotisserie chicken and add additional low sodium chicken broth. Refrigerated leftovers and added more broth the next day since the orzo soaked so much up. It was just as delicious the next day. This is a keeper – thank you!” - Jen | https://www.instagram.com/spendpennies/
