30-minute Chicken and Vegetable Soup

I call this my "cheat's" chicken and vegetable soup because it only takes 30 minutes to cook all the ingredients, rather than the several hours most recipes take. But the flavours are still delicious and it's filling yet not calorie-dense.

In short, it’s a winner!
