Chilly autumn days beg for a big pot of something simmering on the stove! This Chicken Veggie Stew is hearty and healthy and will warm you all the way down to your toes…
I posted this recipe last year but it’s so good I wanted to add it to my youtube channel for All-Things-Autumn…
Ingredients
*4 chicken breasts
(Put them in raw and whole-when soup & breasts are done, take them out and shred the chicken-put shredded chicken back into soup!)
*6 Cups Chicken stock
*1 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
*1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
*6 red potatoes diced
*4-6 slices of Canadian Bacon diced
(I use this to give a smoky flavor-it really makes a difference! Lower fat/calories than bacon& almost as good!)
*1 Tablespoon oregano
*2 cloves of garlic – chopped small
*Dash of celery salt
*Salt & Pepper to taste
*1/4 cup chopped cilantro
*1/2 large white onion-chopped
*1 cup chopped carrots
*2 cups white corn (I took it right off the cob)
*4 cups chopped cabbage
*1 cup squash (I used zucchini & yellow-1 each)

Instructions:
Put everything in a heavy pot & bring to a boil for a few minutes, stirring quite a lot!
Simmer on low for a few hours, stirring now & then.
(the longer it simmers the better!)
Take out (done) chicken breasts and shred with a fork
Put shredded chicken back into soup & stir
(while it’s simmering, get someone to stir it for you while you soak in a hot candle-lit bubble bath…ahhhh)
Serve with crusty cheese bread…if, that is, you can eat crusty bread!

There is such a chill in the air- and they keep mentioning snow in our forecast. The leaves have changed and are beginning to drop and this sounds like the perfect fall food to prepare! Hugs to you- enjoy fall!!
ok, so i’m weird, but when i saw your title (pssst…vegetable is misspelled), my mind went to Veggie Tales. ellie’s old enough to enjoy them, and they’re sooooooo fun!
