I could seriously live off of soup all winter long...but wait, it's NOT winter! SO WHAT!
Nothing to me gives the soup a more clean taste than FRESH dill on top! Oh my!!!
I use free-range, organic chicken, leeks, low sodium chicken broth, celery, carrots,
parsley (if I have it fresh, on-hand), sometimes I use either a yellow onion or scallions, if I have spinach I add that in, I put in frozen squash (1 box) or I use a sweet potato and then puree it and put it back in the stock..makes for a more colorful and healthy broth (either or will do & make a huge difference to me in the flavor of the stock). Also on top I sprinkle whatever cheese I have on hand at the time, Parm or Romano or a mix of them both!?!? YUM!
I SELDOM use all the of the same ingredients every time I make my chicken soup, I think playing around with it and using what's on hand is HALF the fun!
What do YOU put in YOUR Chicken SOUP? I would LOVE to hear!
Anything different/unique?
I love the sweet potato idea, I basically make it the same way you do, I make rice or noodles and keep them separte and add as I serve. I think soup and homemade bread is my favorite meal.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorites as well. I honestly think I can eat soup everyday of the winter!
ReplyDeleteadding a sweet potato gives color, flavor and more nutrients.
