A flexible recipe: Vegetables and chicken soup


Making chicken soup with vegetables your own way (the beauty about this recipe is you can change it any way you like it):
Boil chicken thighs or legs in reasonable amount of water (not too much water).
Then add chopped vegetables (any kind you like such as broccoli, celery, carrot or potatoes) along with a table spoon of grains to give more taste. Grains can be rice, vermicelli or bulgur (choose one you like).
You can add spices (black pepper, red pepper, oregano or cumin) if you want your meal spicy.
Then continue boiling the entire mix until vegetables get fairly soft. That is it! As you see, the recipe can be modified per your taste and budget.
You can add some herbs (cilantro or parsley) before serving your soup, again if you wish.
Enjoy your low sodium soup!
