We love to use Chicken Stock as a base for this soup.

• 6 cups chicken stock
• 3 teaspoons natural chicken-style seasoning* (recipe below)
• 8 oz. cream cheese
• Melt together and add:
• 4 – 6 cups cooked, diced potatoes
• 3 cups cooked chicken
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dill weed
• 4 hard-boiled eggs, diced
• Heat all together and serve.  

It’s delicious on a cold, winter day and so nourishing it boosts the immune system too!

Natural Chicken–Style Seasoning:

To store in your freezer for a quick addition to lots of recipes. This is an excellent replacement for the popular Chicken Bouillon with its artificial ingredients.

• 3 cups Nutritional Yeast Flakes (You may need to go to your health food store for this. I got mine at Miller’s Natural Foods [2] in Lancaster.)
• 7 teaspoons dry bell pepper or dry vegetable flakes
• 3 1/2 teaspoons Celtic sea salt
• 2 1/2 teaspoons celery salt
• 4 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 3 tablespoons onion powder
• 9 tablespoons parsley flakes
• 4 1/2 teaspoons thyme
• 2 1/4 teaspoons marjoram
• Blend all ingredients together and store in a tightly covered container.  I store mine in the freezer for maximum freshness.  It'll keep this way for a year or more if you don't like soup as well as we do.  :)  This is also great for adding flavor to your gravies made from chicken broth.

Best wishes to you all for a wonderful, healthy year!
