Savory Chicken Soup










It isn't exactly a cold day, but I wanted to make some chicken soup.  I wanted to use up all of the vegetables before they go bad and the best way I can do that is by making some soup with lots of vegetables.  I found this recipe in a crockpot cookbook that I have had for like years.  I can't wait to try it out.  Here is the recipe.

Savory Chicken Soup

2 carrots, peeled and sliced
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 to 3 potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 onions, sliced
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
14 1/2 oz. can chicken broth
2 cups water
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. dried parsley
1/2 tsp. dried basil

Place vegetables in a slower ooker; add chicken.  Pour in broth and water; sprinkle seasonings over top.  Cover and cook on low setting for eight hours or on high setting for four hours.  

Serves 4 to 6.

Here is how it looks after three hours in my crockpot.  Looks and smells yummy!
