YOU WILL GET BETTER SOUP
Ingredients that make eyes water and noses run turn out to be very useful in relieving cold and flu symptoms - so chicken soup made with hot, pungent additions works better than recipes that are more bland. That explains the fair amount of heat in this recipe, which can be assembled quickly, even by someone who is feeling pretty rotten (better yet, get someone to make it for you). Sip this slowly from a favorite mug on the couch, blankets tucked around you, and feel better soon.

GET WELL CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
This is the soup I want when I'm under the weather. It's also a great pick-me-up after a late night! I usually make a batch once every three months or so and freeze it in 24 or 32 oz containers so that I always have some ready to pull out.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a tall stock pot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and add chicken stock and enough water to cover and allow the chicken to float slightly. Bring to a boil then reduce to low and simmer until the skin is pulled back and the meat is white.
- Remove the chicken breasts and place on a cutting board. Skim the foam off the top of the soup. Add the celery, carrots, onion, and poultry seasoning. Cover and simmer.
- Allow the chicken to cool so that you don't get burned while handling it. Remove the skin from the chicken breasts and cut away all the meat. Cut meat into small bite-sized pieces. Add meat back to the soup. Taste the broth about twenty minutes after the chicken has been added. Add salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning to taste.
- About fifteen to twenty minutes before you are ready to serve, break the noodles in half and add to the soup. Cook until just past al dente.

Steps:
- Scrub the yams and cover with cold water in a soup pot with peeled carrots. Boil gently until fork tender. Remove the skins from the yams and return to the pot. Add remaining ingredients except rosemary and celery, and continue to simmer until all vegetables are tender. Transfer the vegetables in batches to a food processor and puree. Return to pot and add rosemary and celery, and enough water so the soup is very thick but not pasty. Correct seasonings and heat very hot. Serve with a dollop of sour cream sprinkled with pepitas for a hearty main dish/soup. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will give your soup the best flavor. If possible, try to use organic ingredients.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will lose their flavor and nutrients. Cook them just until they are tender.
- Add some protein: Protein will help to make your soup more filling and satisfying. You can add cooked chicken, beef, pork, or tofu.
- Season to taste: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. A well-seasoned soup is always more delicious.
- Let the soup simmer: Simmering the soup for a longer period of time will help to develop the flavors. Aim to simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time.
- Serve with a side of bread or crackers: A side of bread or crackers is a great way to soak up the soup and make it even more satisfying.
