I guess my love of soup is an honest one, but I prefer it on cold rainy days. Soup is a versatile type of meal that can be made from numerous ingredients. I love to make soup that uses ingredients that otherwise would be thrown away.
Last week, I stocked up on chicken leg quarters at our local grocery store. For $0.39, I will do what it takes to remove the fat, backbone and separate the legs and thighs. At first I thought I would throw the backbone away, but then realized this is the perfect ingredient to make chicken stock! Throw in the chicken gizzards my friend Beth brought over, and I am sure we will have a fabulous stock. I just put all the chicken parts in the pressure cooker, add an onion, garlic, celery and a few carrots and water, and in about 30 minutes we will have stock!
The makings of a great stock! |
Regardless of the type of soup I end up with, I know it will be flavorful and delicious. I will share the recipe in a while. I might even be overly ambitious and and make homemade egg noodles for our soup. I guess you will have to check back and see what type of concoction I come up with.
Have a fabulous day, and keep adventuring and looking for joy in the small details of life!
