Out of the lunchbox & into my tummy–
Romaine lettuce salad with red onions, kalamata olives, and black beans. On the side—I enjoyed some cherries, a veggie mix of carrots & tomatoes, with some 365 brand Cheddar rice crispettes
Now onto the other goods
————————————————————————————————————-
I admit to using this recipe as means to acquire brownie points during two particular instances in my life:
1. A few months ago when my mother came down with a horrible cold & I wanted to play “favorite child.”
2. The other night when Will was restricted from leaving his house due to a monster-of-a-sickness and I wanted to play “favorite girlfriend.”
Now, I am here to share this terrific home-style chicken noodle soup recipe so that you can win some brownie points of your own ![]()
Chicken Noodle Soup for the Sick Boyfriend’s Soul![]()
Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup diced onion
- 5 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast
- 1 1/2 cup egg noodles
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a large pot. Once hot, put onion into the pot and cook until tender (about 5 minutes)
2. Combine chicken broth with onions and stir in chicken, noodles, carrots, spinach, basil and oregano.
3. Bring soup to a boil, then cover and reduce heat. Allow soup to cook for 20-25 minutes until ready to serve. Bon apetit!
