Easy Creamy Chicken soup with Chayote (sayote) and Carrots
My favorite soup to make, especially when I have no ingredients at home, is a "whatever's-in-the-fridge" soup. It's a great way to use up leftover vegetables and proteins, and it's always different, which keeps it interesting.

Notes
I didn't have any leafy vegetables in my pantry, so I used chayote to add some green color to this recipe. It turned out so yummy! Serve it topped with toasted garlic or chili flakes, enjoy!
