What's one of the best things to help beat the cold? A steaming hot bowl of soup!
I've been making lots of soup lately. Chicken with veggies is super simple, absolutely affordable and truly tasty!
Here's how I like to make it:
12 oz. bag frozen peas and carrots
12 oz. bag frozen baby lima beans
two 14 oz. cans of cut green beans
14 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 pound split chicken breast with skin and ribs
4 cups low sodium chicken stock
2 cups water
1/2 tbsp. dried parsley
salt & pepper to taste.
Put everything in a large stock pot or crock-pot. Cook on low for 8-10 hours, until chicken is cooked through. Take chicken out and allow to cool.
Pull the skin off and take the bones out.
Give the chicken a rough shred. Two forks will work just fine if it's too warm for your fingers. But if you can touch it, get your hands in there! It's lots of fun.
Add the chicken back to the soup. Give it a good stir to get everything acquainted.
Pour yourself a big bowl and enjoy!
