You can add vegetables, noodles, pasta and other ingredients to turn it into a wholesome meal. Those of you who are following a particular diet or closely keep a track on your calorie consumption can opt for simple, clear chicken soups instead. According to Delhi-based weight management expert, Gargi Sharma, "Opt for a light dinner that would include teaming salads with some soup. Chicken soup can easily serve as a nutritious finale to your long, tiring day."
