CHICKEN MINESTRONE SOUP
My son-in-law has renamed this soup "Chewy Chicken Soup." The flavor is great and the torn chicken meat gives the soup a different texture. (A chewy texture) An excellent soup to serve with warm breadsticks. For a soup lower in fat, substitute 5 cups chicken boullion for the water used to cook chicken.

Steps:
- In dutch oven, combine chicken, water and baby celery w/leaves. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 4-5 hours. (This first step can be done in the crock pot, and you don't need quite as much water.) Remove chicken and celery from water. Discard skin, bones & celery. Tear chicken apart. Set aside.
- If desired, remove some or all of the fat from water. If needed, add water and boullion cube to make 5 cups broth.
- In small saucepan, boil 1/2 cup Acini di Pepe Pasta in water for 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Combine all ingredients but the pasta and cheese in a dutch oven. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat. Cover. Simmer for 30 minutes adding in the pasta in the last 5 minutes.
- Top each 1 cup serving with 1 Tbsp of Shredded Parmesan Cheese.
