Thanks for the ideas. I'm happy with my chicken noodle soup, but seems like it just wasn't quite complete yet. Always room for improvement!


I like Parsnips in my beef stew(along with potatoes and the other stuff..)... bet they'd be good in chicken soup too, cause they're kinda like white carrots...

I put broccoli in mine. I cut up fresh florets into about 1" pieces and add them when I add the carrots. It blends very well with the chicken.

I just made homegrown chix soup, basically the same with onion, garlic, carrot and celery. Then I dumped in the watery juice left from a jar of homemade salsa I didn't pack quite tight enough, there was a lot of juice left. Anyway, it it went, and my honey's eaten three bowls of it! Swears it's way better than what we get at our fave mexican place. We low carb so no noodles, rice, etc.

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!

Can I ask why the vinegar please?

A little splash of vinegar (I use apple cider vinegar but I don't think it matters what kind?) helps the bones release the minerals when you're cooking for stock/broth. Makes it more nutritious.

I like to add dill weed to my chicken and dumplings.  I sprinkle it on my salads also.

I got crazy yesterday and added provolone cheese to my soup.  It was divine.  Didn't taste cheezy, just made it a little heartier.... HipHipHipHooray for left overs today!!
