Yum! Looks delicious! My husband made chicken soup today with baby bell mushrooms, broccoli florets, carrots, vidalia onion, celery, red peppers, and red onions.
He made the stock first with the whole chicken, onion and carrots, holding aside the meat.
I think soup-making is the most satisfying and contemplative work we do in the kitchen. I have more fun with it than with any other kind of recipe. Soup just never seems like *work*.
