Yep .... just posted back on the other thread @Former-Member 😊

Cream-of-clean-out-the-fridge-soup on the menu over here today ....

Think I will find some fancy bowls to serve it in, and raid the garden for some sprigs of thyme to make it look more like this picture I have found ....

yum , yum xx

on my way out to put on a birthday dinner for my mum

we have been cutting back on work, hubby is feeling anxious because he is wondering if we are shotting ourselves in the foot by doing less

hubby feels soooo tired after doing only a few hours of work

Hubby is probably still fatigued from his recent illness @Shaz51 ....

i hope you enjoy the birthday celebration 🌷

I make chicken broth a bit. What are you adding to it? Chicken soup (bone broth) is very good for you, something to do with the nutrient in the marrow.
My recipe is: one whole raw chicken, one onion, finely chopped, one carrot finely grated, salt and pepper - peppercorns are excellent, cover with water until the chiken is cooked. You can take out the chicken then, and use it for anything else - hubby prefers to put it in a pan and brown it up, so it becomes roast chicken. He also adds a packet of chicken noodle soup, but it's not totally necessary. You could also add some mixed herbs to improve the flavour. I add chilli to the soup sometimes too for a bit of extra boot. This is what we tend to make when one of us is coming down with a cold.

Soups are what we're living on just now. Even though we're in Qld, I'm suffering from the cold nights and mornings.

Here's another one for you, and it might appeal with your bone marrow recipe @Former-Member ....

Beat eggs until fluffy - the best outcome is by separating the eggs and whipping the whites more than the yolks - then add lemon juice to taste - best to start with one lemon as you can add lemon juice in later if you want to up the flavour - then add it in increments to the slightly cooled soup so it doesn't curdle. A pinch of Oregano or Marjoram goes down well with it, and it's very good for colds.

I think soo too @Faith-and-Hope
