Creamy Chicken Potato Soup image

This soup is loaded with chunks of potatoes and chicken, but is low in fat. Each serving is 1 1/3 cups. Diabetic Exchanges: 2 very lean meat, 1 1/2 starch, 1/2 fat-free milk. This recipe comes from Carla Reid. I found this recipe in Light & Tasty magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping.
