Yummy ~ Easy ~ Chicken Soup

This chicken soup is Yummy and Easy

1 Whole Chicken
1 Can Cooked Carrots
1 Can Cannelloni Beans
4-5 Stalks of Celery
Mushrooms

Boil your chicken - season well with salt, pepper and other favorite herbs and spices.  When chicken is done set aside to cool - then debone.  Save the broth.  I usually do this on the weekend and freeze or refrigerate for a quick evening meal during the week!!

To make soup:   Cut up celery and saute in butter, add mushrooms.

In stockpot put the broth and chicken, add sauted mushrooms and celery.  Add can of carrots (drained), add can of cannelloni white beans (drained), and season to taste. 

Heat to a boil then lower to a simmer until ready to serve.  The longer you simmer the more the seasonings and flavors will mix.  You may need to add water if you did not have much broth. 

Add a Warm Crusty Loaf of Bread and what a comforting meal  (We have Beer Bread Mixes online that go sooooooooo well with soup!)
