Chicken Soup


 
It all started last week with a roasted organic chicken...
 
Delicious with carrots, red potatoes, onion, roasted garlic and sweet potatoes.
 
Then I took the bones, and some vegetables and
slow simmered some delicious bone broth.
 
Now...
 
Chicken Soup!
 
 
Add chicken meat removed from the bone to the broth
 (I added some roasted breast meat since we ate most of the meat from the whole chicken I had done earlier! Roasted boneless breasts in some of the broth along with fresh basil, chives, cilantro, black pepper and lime juice.)
Chopped Organic carrots,
One large diced leek
One medium peeled and diced turnip
several stalks of celery with leaves
Crimini mushrooms-sliced
chopped chives
chopped baby spinach (about half a bag)
season with sea salt and ground pepper, a bay leaf, 
cayenne pepper, lime zest
 
Planning to top with a squeeze of lime juice, a dollup of plain, greek, whole milk yogurt and some slivers of avocado
 
Is it dinner time yet, because it smells wonderful!!
