Made this again but vegetarian this time. Added a can of white beans and half a can of chicken to sub chicken.

This was disappointing; have tried other iterations of this soup that came out much better. The rice soaked up all liquid. Added too much soy sauce.

Would be great for a sick day! VERY easy. Also, I don't think it's accurate that it makes 4-6 servings. More like 3 for us, and we didn't have big portions.

Used the scallion substitution and the whole batch of the "sauce". Really good and much needed after a travel day. T loved it, 5/5.

Love this soup! You can make a lot of substitutions here - also I think Molly Baz version is just a littleeeee better but the methods are a bit different.
