Hi again, here is a simple soup recipe. Sure, there are many ingredients, but when you chop, prep, and measure in advance, you just throw everything in when it's ready to go in!
Enjoy.You'll need:
- 2-4 large roasted chicken thighs (roast in advance with salt, pepper, oil and shread the chicken)
- 1/2 cup wild rice blend
- 1/2 cup split yellow peas
- 1 onion, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 celery, sliced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 small potatoes, diced
- 1 small sweet potatoe, diced
- 1/2 can red kidney beans- save the rest for pasta sauce later in the week.
- handful of broccoli florets
- 2 scallions
Spices 'n Flavorings:
-1/2 tsp each, oregano, turmeric, black pepper, dry mustard, cumin.
- dash of cayenne pepper and red pepper flakes for spice!(add more if you like it hot!)
- 2-4 tbsps of your favorite chicken soup bouillon mix (or to taste)
- salt to taste
1. Heat up a large soup pot with oil and saute onions, garlic, salt, pepper, rice and split peas for 5 minutes. Add in all spices/flavorings.
2. Add in carrots and celery and then enough water to cover everything (maybe 6-8 cups).
3. Bring to a boil, then lower to a simmer and cover.
4. Cook enough so that rice is almost done (mine was 50 minute rice) and add in potatoes to cook.
5. With 5 minutes left, add in broccoli, scallions and red beans.
6. Add cooked chicken.
7. Taste... maybe more salt?
8. Serve.
