Almost Free Chicken Soup
On Mon 11 Feb 2008 02:15:54p, Janet Wilder told us...
> We are both down with the Texas Crud. Sore throat, dry cough and

> I went into the freezer and found the following:

> 2 chicken rib cage bones halves that I froze a few months ago when whole
> chicken breasts were on sale. After deboning the chicken, I saved the

> packages.
>
> 2 chicken necks and gizzards from when I made beer can chickens and used

>
> 1 package of 8 chicken wing tips which I always save when I disjoint
> chicken wings bought on sale for freezing.
>
> 1 skinless-boneless chicken breast half.
>
> After adding the usual carrots, celery (with leaves) onions, dill,
> parsley and for lack of a parsnip or turnip, a quarter of a green pepper
> (an old trick my late Mom taught me).
>
> Never throw anything useful away!

> We have about 7 quarts of awesome broth and we can now proceed to get
well.
