my husband michael y'all loves soup
0:03
he could eat soup three times a day and
0:06
that sounds so strange to me because
0:08
such a big man you know he doesn't look
0:12
uh get off on soups but he does
0:16
well he had to go to the doctor i didn't
0:20
and i told him i said i want to make you
0:24
some kind of italian soup maybe with
0:27
like a chicken broth or something like
0:30
and he said well why are you doing that
0:33
i said because i didn't know if being
0:36
put to sleep was gonna uh
0:38
affect you so he said no i'm fine
0:44
so i never made it and theresa
0:48
brought me this recipe
0:55
for a tagging chicken soup so
0:58
it was like destined for me to make this
1:07
um it's on my website i don't know if
1:10
it's one of my cookbooks or not i can't
1:13
but anyway you can go on facebook to get
1:18
out with cut up chicken breast
1:21
breasts and i'm browning those
1:30
getting them ready to add the other
1:32
stuff this is a very simple soup
1:34
and casey one of the young ladies that
1:37
works in our office we've been together
1:39
for years she's so sweet and
1:41
got two of the most beautiful little
1:42
children you've ever seen
1:44
well when theresa was talking about this
1:48
recipes that we're gonna make casey said
1:52
m g teresa i just made that
1:55
and she said it is out of this world so
1:59
children ate it too oh yeah yay
2:05
oh that's good so thank you casey thank
2:09
everything you do by our team
2:19
i've known casey since she was a
2:23
long before she married um
2:28
when all the girls be hanging out at the
2:30
beach in them cute little tiny swimsuits
2:40
i'm gonna add my onion
2:46
i'm gonna add my carrots
2:50
i'm gonna add my zucchini
2:54
you know to me i find this real strange
2:58
cloud for the triplets
3:04
all the time for those babies and they
3:08
up eddie and eat it like it is candy
3:12
and i mean it looks like maybe she's
3:16
sauteed it a little bit yeah
3:19
i mean it's soft but it just amazes me
3:22
to see those little babies
3:24
well they're not babies anymore but to
3:29
lap up zucchini all right now
3:33
i don't think the recipe calls for this
3:35
but anytime i'm making an
3:36
italian dish i'm gonna bump it up with
3:47
so you can see this is a very clean soup
3:51
got a lot of things in it that are good
4:03
uh two 14 and a half ounce cans of
4:08
and i've got the diced tomatoes and
4:11
they have the basil the garlic and the
4:13
oregano already in them so
4:15
we're going to get a a nice little
4:25
this one also has the basil the garlic
4:30
okay but you like to you like to use
4:33
i do i like crushed tomatoes
4:40
using a recipe like this one
4:45
the diced may be better it might give it
4:49
a little bit more body than the crushed
4:54
so yeah i always buy crushed tomatoes i
4:59
all right so it called for 28 ounces or
5:04
two cans this size of chicken broth
5:18
you know most soups i make are a little
5:21
troublesome it's troublesome
5:24
than this one this one's just so simple
5:26
so easy and so delicious
5:28
so we're gonna cook this uncovered for
5:33
and then we're gonna dig in
5:39
our italian chicken and vegetable soup
5:42
looks wonderful y'all
5:44
it's been a long time since i've made
5:47
and you know i have always
5:50
suggested that the first time
5:53
you use a recipe to go right by the
5:57
but then the next time make it your own
6:00
because that's what i do i have trouble
6:03
following my own recipes y'all
6:06
uh because you never know how you're
6:09
feeling when you get in the kitchen to
6:12
so i did exactly like
6:16
the recipe was written so many years ago
6:19
but i did add a couple of bay leaves to
6:24
but it's just just exactly
6:28
uh right by the recipe
6:31
but there's a lot of ways you could
6:34
change this one up a little bit y'all
6:36
um one thing i am gonna do is i'm gonna
6:39
tear me up some little
6:40
fresh basil and put on top of it
6:44
and in the recipe i tell y'all
6:48
to put a little parmesan cheese on top
6:53
of your soup when you're ready to serve
6:56
so look how delicious that looks and
7:00
you know eddie looked at he said i'd put
7:05
you know what and it would be so good
7:08
but uh this just seems like such a nice
7:13
to have a hot hearty meal if i can keep
7:16
my hands off the french bread
7:19
this looks just delicious
7:30
i think i want a little bit more
7:31
parmesan cheese eddie
7:35
you know i'm the condiment girl i love
7:54
it's just rich with flavor oh and i did
7:58
something else even though my diced
8:00
tomatoes had basil oregano
8:09
i can't remember what it had but anyway
8:12
herb herb diced tomatoes
8:15
um i added italian seasoning to it
8:20
because i just feel like
8:23
if you're cooking in a tagging dish
8:34
and the fresh basil that i just put in
8:38
i mean i feel like i could run five
8:42
miles i'm eating so heavy
8:43
i'm not i've been so light
8:50
i guess i said that because i'm used to
8:51
eating heavy but i feel like i'm eating
8:56
