Grandma's Chicken and Rice Soup

"Grandma used to make this all the time when we were kids. The egg added nutrition and looked pretty in the pot. The recipe calls for 2 chicken bouillon, but I don't use it."

  1. This is a great and comforting chicken soup! I left out the onion as I don't care for them, otherwise made as specified. I expected to have to add a lot of salt at serving time and was pleasantly surprised that all it needed was a sprinkling of black pepper. This mild and tasty soup would be great anytime - thanks for posting the recipe! Made for My 3 Chefs November 2008

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a Christian wife and mother of 3 kids. Since my DH's high cholesterol, we've been eating better. I never used to like cooking. Since eating better, I've liked learning and preparing new recipes. My kids haven't reconciled themselves to the new eating yet. I grind my own grain and make all my own breads.?Working 2 hours a day in the local high school lunch room.??I am homeschooling my high schooler.? ?Also found out 1 child has multiple food allergies (wheat, dairy, tomato, chocolate, etc) and another is gluten sensitive. So, we just started (July 09) eating gluten and dairy free. I've been busy with getting our house market ready, even though it's not the best time for that.?
