This chicken soup is easy and nutritious. Farro adds such a yummy bite to the soup, it's a great grain to include in your diet. I ladled a bowl out for my somewhat vegetarian daughter before adding the chicken and put some chickpeas in hers. I've also made this by just using any vegetables I had in the fridge or garden. Adding shredded cabbage at the end is a quick and cheap way to add nutrition.
