Chicken Mushroom Soup


Today I had to cook a soup because some members of my family weren't feeling well. This is my own recipe and it's good for you when you have the flu (it rhymes!) and your tummy is not feeling well - like indigestion, nausea, stomachache, etc. The soup will be very rich in flavor.

You will need
6 qt pot
16 cups or 4 qt of water
1 package of baby bella mushrooms
1 sweet onion
2 Tbsp of butter
1 chicken breast
2 big carrots
4-5 potatoes
spices (I used seasoning salt, regular salt and pepper)

First you need to wash and slice the mushrooms and chop the onion. On the frying pan heat 2 Tbsp of butter and saute the mushrooms and onion until the onion is slightly gold. Set aside.
In the big pot add 4 qt of water and the chicken, bring to a boil, and cook for about 20 minutes. While you are waiting for the pot with chicken (sliced or cubed as you like) to cook you can cut the carrots and potatoes and add them after 30 minutes is up. Let the veggies cook for 15-20 minutes, check if they are done. Now you can add the mushroom/onion mixture along with your spices. Let soup stand for 10-15 minutes.
It makes a lot. Even for a family of 4. Enjoy!
