Soup's On!






I love to make soup. Soup is a staple on our dinner table October through April. Nothing better than hot soup and bread for dinner!

So, today's blog post is my adventures in soup making. Notice in the pictures - no recipe. No, I don't need no stinkin' recipe to make soup! At least not the few kids I make from memory.

So, today's dinner - Chicken Noodle:

First, I boil the chicken (I prefer something with bones - thighs or legs) with some chunks of celery, carrot, onion, chicken base, and fresh Rosemary (my secret ingredient)


After a few hours, I strain everything out, pick the meat off the bones, add meat back to the stock and add fresh chopped celery, onion, carrot and a few more sprigs of fresh Rosemary.


Just before serving, I'll add noodles - I prefer homestyle, but you really could use anything. I don't too many because I prefer my soup to not be just noodles!
Since i'm the cook, I make it to my personal preference!
Rachel Ray - she uses a garbage bowl - I use a plate. Whatever works!




And there you have it. Soup!
