Luckily for us, we know the cure (well, at the very least, the remedy): chicken soup. Having a few great chicken soup recipes under your belt for cold and flu season will not only help you weather it, but will also make you look like a superhero to friends in need. If anyone has ever made you chicken soup when you were sick, you know awesome it is, and how restorative it can feel.

Chicken soup may not really cure a cold, but it certainly helps. Even if you're in perfect health it tastes awfully good.
