Health Soup

Lots of people are sick! Thankfully, I don't get sick much anymore. I attribute some of that to not having little ones in school around - they've all grown up and have their own little ones who bring germs home. Here is a wonderful and easy chicken soup recipe that I call Health Soup that I hope you will give a try. This is quick to make, which is wonderful when you are doing the caring for yourself. And sometimes I make it just because I'm having a garlic craving! (Garlic - food of the gods).

Health Soup

6 cloves garlic, crushed

1 Tb cooking oil

4 Tb Chicken base (the pastey kind)

4 C water

1/4 t ground pepper

2 eggs, beaten

fresh parsley, slightly chopped

Cook the garlic in the oil until tender but not burned or brown - couple of minutes on medium heat should do it. Add the water and begin to heat. Add the pasty chicken base, stir to disolve, then add the pepper. Fresh ground is really delicious in this. Cover and simmer for 12 - 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, and while it is still very hot slowly pour the beaten eggs into the hot soup in a thin stream, stirring gently until it looks kind of shredded throughout the soup. Add the parsley and eat up!

I always feel better after I eat this delicious and easy soup, and after I have chanted, "I Am Healthy, I Am Healthy, I Am Healthy, I Am Healthy..."
