Barb's Chicken and Rice Soup
"Had some rotisserie chicken that I needed to use up. Put this recipe together using items that I had in the pantry and refrigerator. The Knorr's Homestyle stock and seasonings in the Trader Joe's rice made the recipe. Note that you can throw in whatever vegetables you have on hand, the ones I used were just what I had in the frig."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My husband and I moved to Tennessee from Pennsylvania in 2005. We absolutely love it here, especially being near the Smoky Mountains. My kids are grown and are out of the house. I am a nurse practitioner, work for Evercare, a division of United Healthcare, caring for elderly patients in nursing homes. My husband and I love the outdoors, and we especially enjoy hiking in the Smoky Mountains. I also enjoy doing Jazzercise as often as I can get there. We have 2 spoiled rotten kitties, Elizabeth and Harvey, and an equally spoiled rotten yellow lab, Hayley.
