Emergency Soup
It is an "Emergency" when you don't know what to make for Dinner. This recipe is perfect for a hectic day (or can even be made ahead of time).
1 to 2 cans of Chicken Breast (or you can use a Rotisserie Cooked Chicken pulled off the bone from the Market)
1/2 cup of cubed Carrots
1 Cup of half inch Potato cubes
4 cups water or broth ( I used 3 cans broth and 1 can of water)
1/2 cup Celery Slices
1 Onion cut in shreds
1/4 cup Butter
Salt and Pepper to taste
Herbs and Spices
Cook Carrot, Celery and onion in the melted butter for 10 minutes
Cook Potatoes in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and Rinse in cold water.
Add Potatoes to the other vegetables.
Add the Broth or Water
Add Chicken
Add your favorite herbs or spices
Cook for 1 Hour on medium low heat.
Eat!

Sounds like it taste great Carolyn. Did you make the recipe yourself? I will try it sometime. Deb
if you're into gizmos, you ought to look into getting a pressure cooker.
I bet that soup would take 10 minutes or so in one. If you get the hang of how long things take to cook, you don't have to rely on pressure cooker recipes.
veggies take around 10 minutes, and meat takes 12-15 minutes. It saves on time and energy, which is always a good thing.
I want a pressure cooker! I am a little scared of them.....but I want one!
