How to Make Chicken Soup

The secret to delicious soup is often butter. You can add just a couple of slices or a whole lot. Even a tablespoon or two gives soup some "magic." I use a new invention called the One Click Butter Cutter to easily add butter to my meals. It stores butter and also cuts just one slice at a time with a squeeze of the hand.

My favorite website for looking up the health benefits of any food is a site called The World's Healthiest Foods. When I want to know how good something is for me I use that website to search for the ingredient.

This is how I make chicken soup in under an hour. Actual cooking time is only about 20-30 minutes, but if you need to cut up the veggies then the prep can take awhile.

2. Open some cans of chicken and put the chicken in the pot.
3. Put a bullion cube in the pot.
4. Add some fun spices.
5. Fill up the pot with water.
6. Add several slices of butter.
7. Bring pot to a boil and cook for awhile.
8. Add rice or noodles, and cook some more time.

The total cooking time varies.. If you cook the veggies longer, the broth will become more like vegetable stock. But, if you like your noodles to be al dente, then only cook the noodles for the length of time it says on the package.
