Chicken Vegetable Soup for One

I love soup. I just don't love all the work that goes into making a big pot of soup. And, I don't love the fact that some bowls of soup get more chicken other bowls get more pasta.  So, I make soup for one.

First, take a 2 quart pan and dump in about 6 to 8 ounces of random fresh or frozen vegetables. Today I used:
  • 1 ounce frozen organic peas
  • 2 ounces frozen bell peppers
  • 2 ounces frozen okra
  • 2.5 ounces frozen organic green beans

Next, add about 3 or 4 ounces organic canned tomatoes and 3 ounces cooked chicken.




Then, spices and herbs. Today I used:
  • Penzey's  Cajun seasoning
  • Basil
  • Cilantro
  • Rosemary
  • Garlic powder
  • Onion powder
  • Pepper

Add chicken broth, water, and maybe a squirt of tomato paste, then cook until it is as done as you like.
