Simple and Satisfying...

Sometimes I crave nothing more than homemade soup and a fresh sandwich! Not the most complicated meal but it is one of those yummy comfort foods we all love. I love to make a batch of fresh soup and it is the only way I can get Little David to eat vegetables!




It is simple...
1. Buy a cooked roaster from the food store. Break in a couple pieces and place in a pot of water.

2. Add any veggies you like (whole). I like Zucchini, Onions, Carrots, Celery. Whatever looks fresh at the food store!

3. Add whatever seasoning you like. I like a fresh bay leaf and some Italian seasoning usually.

4. Boil for a while. Presto! Fresh chicken broth! Strain it keeping the liquids (obviously, thats the broth. haha)

5. Then cut up the veggies and chicken and throw back in.

6. I like to add a can of diced tomatoes with mild green chiles, but add fresh or another flavor... I promise you, You CAN NOT screw this up :)

7. Then I season with Salt & Pepper, Toss in some small pasta and stir in chopped fresh spinach. Cook until pasta is done and there you go, Fresh homemade soup, better tasting and better for you than anything you can buy at the store.

**I like to serve it with Veggie Paninis. Crusty Fresh bread, Portabello Mushrooms, Bell Peppers, Zucchini, Cheese (I like Mozzarella or Sharp Cheddar). There are a million different variations**

You can't beat this combo for a satisfying & simple meal.
