Chicken Soup


A pause in our couple of weeks of sickness-

A recipe for a mean (yummy mean) chicken soup:


saute onions (1 and 1/2 finely diced)

add water, chicken (preferably including the bone), and salt

let boil

add 3 cloves of mashed garlic (my grandmother's touch is to add some mashed garlic directly into the serving bowl right before serving)

throw in all left over goodies (vegetables- spinach and carrots are our favorite, a starch- last night was tortellini, extra protein- beans and a couple of slices of fresh ginger)

boil and warm on low for as long as you need, want (it gets better the longer it sits)

salt and pepper to taste


lovely as a left-over
