RECIPE (sort of) ALERT

Last night we experimented and did try a version of an oriental hot soup. OMG!! It was wonderful!!

Sautéed onion
Sautéed green pepper
Sautéed celery
Sautéed Snow Peas
Bamboo shoots (canned)
Used a can of one of the varieties of Lite Progresso chicken soup

Added
Garlic powder
Cumin
Onion powder
Thyme
Bay leaf
Dried parsley

Ground Cayenne pepper. We decided that since we are not currently fighting a cold to use a mild amount. We have one of those sets of measuring spoons on which “dash” is an amount. It is probably around a 1/16 of a tsp. It was just right for us.

We also put in a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar

Splash of lite (lo sodium) soy sauce

Let it simmer for a while, added more chicken.

We plan to do it again soon! Our thanks to all who were involved in bringing this idea to us!
