chicken soup for lunch

Published October 20, 2008

Mmm... I just finished a bowl of the BEST chicken soup (in my opinion anyway)!

Two nights ago, I cooked a roaster in the oven.  I filled the cavity with onions and fresh celery.  I rubbed butter on the skin and lightly seasoned with salt and pepper.  I placed it in a browning bag, with cut, red potatoes and baked until done.  I prepared some rice (lipton's chicken rice) to go with the meal.  It was scrumptious.

This morning, I took the bones of the same chicken, along with the broth that was made when it was baking and brought it to a boil in a pot w/added water.  I pulled the remainder of the meat off the bones and let it simmer.  I took some left-over rice and put it in the bowl with my soup mix (including the onions, celery and potatoes) and OH MY GOODNESS was it good!!!

This is my favorite way to eat chicken.  Baked one day and then bones for soup the next.  And on a cold day like today?  Mmm mmm good!!

My folks do the same thing with the leftover Turkey Parts the day after Thanksgiving. Add some rice and veggies. Good stuff!

Sounds good for a cool Fall day. Sounds like a recipe my wife would do. Me, I'm too lazy. I can almost smell it from here.

My son started wanting steak soup just as soon as the temperature cooled under 70. Guess I will have to make it for him this weekend.

We were thinking alike, girlie, I made home made chicken, meatball & vegetable soup yesterday, one of those all-day soup projects. Perfect fare on a cold day! And it's sooooo good!

I love making home made soups and chilis. Friday night I made tomatoe soup from fresh roma tomatoes, yum. That recipe was from some show but I get other great ones from recipezaar.com.

You made your own chicken soup and didn't invite me over to share?

Never fill up on rice and go to sleep. You will have nightmares. Try it at your own risk.

I have always eaten rice that has been a week, sometimes almost two weeks old and have never had food poisoning.

Yhat sounds like one of those old wives tales to me, sorry

Huh! I've never heard that about rice before! I'll typically keep rice (plain white) for almost a week. Flavored rice, only about 3 days.

I always add a bottle of v8 juice to my chicken soup. Every body that eats it, swears that it is better than anything their grandmothers ever cooked. Oh if they only knew my secret. I know that golo wont tell.
