This recipe is near and dear to my heart. My mother passed away suddenly a few years ago and whenever I am feeling homesick I pull out this recipe. She used to make this soup for our family as far back as I can remember.
It’s made with our grandmas homemade noodles that are so simple yet buttery and make the whole dish a 10/10. If you have seen the movie Ratatouille you will know the scene where the cranky food critic Anton Ego takes one bite and is instantly taken back to a memory of his mother comforting him with her ratatouille. This, this dish is that for me and my family/friends and I hope it will become for yours as well!
I like to serve this as a the main course because it is super creamy and filling. The best way to eat it is with my favorite is cheddar biscuits. Here is my easy recipe. Fluffy Cheddar Biscuits
Lets get started on making a memory together.
