Cold Enough for Homemade Soup

It has been super cold around where I live lately. This past week saw me out in it every day. Friday was a balmy 34 degrees so I decided I had better head to a grocery store--I was out of coffee creamer--and there is a big snow predicted starting Sunday evening. Of course the store I went to did not have my preferred brand but luckily did have at least the flavor I love. I ended up with-- Nestle Coffee-mate Sugar Free Italian Sweet Creme Liquid Coffee Creamer



As I was strolling through the store I saw one of those boxed Chicken Stocks--hum--SOUP. Off to the produce section and low and behold they actually had a soup mix-of BIG pieces of MANY different kinds of veggies. That was it--paid and home I drove.

Home I made a cup of coffee--dragged out my stock pot and proceeded to cut all those veggies into bite size pieces--it really did take a while-and I took a chicken breast out of the freezer to defrost. All the veggies in the pot (finally)-I poured in the box of chicken stock and added 4 cups of water. I set the flame to the lowest possible so the veggies would start to soften. After about 2 hours rhe chicken had defrosted and I cut that into bite size pieces--into the pot it went. I also added a packet of Herb-Ox Bouillon Chicken Instant Broth and Seasoning, 1.2 oz, 8 Packets (Pack of 2) for extra flavor.



It took about 5 hours in all but it was absolutely delicious!! Just what I needed! Of course I will be eating it for more then a couple of days--It isn't easy cooking for a single person!!

I never made chicken soup, but it sounds delicious. This is definitely the weather for it.
