Chicken Vegetable Soup

My mother has made this soup my entire life! It is THE one that I look so forward to making and stocking my freezer with once the cool weather starts coming in.

This recipe makes a large batch that I usually get at least 3 -4 quarts to freeze as well as keeping a big container in the refrigerator to eat during the week I make it.

It is really more like a stew since it is so full of vegetables. And I absolutely love that it is another clean eating meal to serve my family.

My husband prefers his soup with some type of pasta. Growing up, we never had it with anything added but I do like it with a small orzo or ditalini too.

INGREDIENTS

(1) 4-5 lb whole chicken

1 onion, chopped

(2) 2 lb bags of frozen mixed vegetables

1 lb bag of frozen green beans
