The Magical Made-Up Chicken Soup

1 to 1.5 pounds frozen seasoning blend (onions and bell peppers)
1 bag matchstick carrots
Quart of chicken stock (kitchen basics, preferably)
White wine
2 Chicken bouillon cubes
3-4 chopped chicken breasts (or 1 rot. chicken)
3 bay leaves (optional)
Salt and black pepper 
1 tbsp turmeric
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
(optional: cayenne, curry)
Good sprinkle of italian seasoning 
3 cups half and half (can be substituted with other options)
Pasta of choice (optional)


Saute seasoning blend and carrots for a few minutes with butter and olive oil. Stir in chicken stock, some white wine, and 2 bouillon cubes. Add chicken, bay leaves, and seasonings. Simmer for awhile, remove from heat, and had 3 cubs of half half at the end, stirring quickly to incorporate. Serve with pasta, as desired. 


We have also confirmed the soup is similarly delicious with coconut milk instead of half and half, which makes it a good dairy free option if necessary!
