SNOW DAY!! HOMEMADE CHICKEN SOUP

                             



                                       Another snow day here in 
                                     the Kawarthas!!







             What better way to warm the soul , but with
                       Homemade Chicken soup.







Now I'm sure you all have your own recipe but here is mine.

                      So easy!!

                  This is what you will need.

                 Skinless boneless chicken breast
                  celery
                  sweet onion
                   carrots
                    rice  (I use basmati)
                    salt and pepper 
                     poultry seasoning
                     veg oil (I use coconut oil)

Let's get started.........

              In a pot I boil my chicken breast for 1/2 hour in 
                             2 cups of water.







             While this is simmering I cut up my vegs. and 
                   start to saute them in my dutch oven. 







                   Once my chicken is done I cut it up into large chunks 
                            and add it to the saute vegetables and add
                                   the chicken water.
                 I then add another cup of water to the broth.
                                







                      Add the seasonings to taste.    
                 I add the rice last since it doesn't take long
                               to cook.








              Continue simmering till the vegetables are cooked.
                       



                           Dish it up in a soup bowl .                 


                        HMMM!! HMMM!  GOOD!

                  Nothing like Chicken Soup on a cold day!









           We had another 15 cm of snow fall yesterday!! 
             These pictures were taken last weekend!
                  We sure didn't need more snow...






         Hope everyone is enjoying your day!

                            Thanks for stopping by!
