    I used fat-free chicken stock (also low salt) and chicken breasts cubed and loved it. - 10/14/10

    Why would you remove the bones = they add excellent flavour. Why the can of soup? Its too much extra fat and sodium. - 10/14/10

    Why would I add a can of soup to my homemade soup? I would not! I think I will take my chances without the can of soup.. the rest might be good as long as I can keep the bones in until done cooking.. Too much flavor would be lost if you were to take the bones out... - 10/15/10

    The instructions are misleading: the recipe calls for de-boned and de-skinned chicken legs, then says to do that in the course of preparation. The latter seems better, because you get more flavour that way. - 10/14/10

    Thanks, I was just wondering if anyone posted a healthy soup to make with the cooler temps arriving. I will give this a try. - 10/14/10

    I'm thinking it's as easy to make chicken soup in a regular pan as a crockpot. Regardless, I'd avoid throwing out the water I used to cook the chicken legs (and what happens to the carrots?). Rather, I'd chill the liquid and remove the congealed chicken fat that rises to the top. - 10/17/10

    Is it best to get rid of the bones and skin after because of flavor or before because they don't add anything to it? - 10/14/10
