I'm a bit under the weather today, and having read all the soup recipes, it sounded good. I took the last chunk of leftover ham I had, boiled it till it was tender, threw in chopped onion, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and carrot, then threw in some frozen corn. SInce I had no bone left, the broth wasn't as rich as I like it, so I added some chicken soup base. Yum.

Sorry you are feeling under the weather, your soup sounded really good.
Chicken soup with Spanish Rice -This is easy recipe, don't let directions scare you
Soup:
Whole chicken or whatever pieces you really love
1 whole onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
2-3 potatos, cut in half and quartered
2-4 carrots, cut in half and quartered lengthwise
2 stalks celery
Spanish Rice:
2-3 T Oil
1 1/2 C uncooked white or jasmine rice
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
1-2 T chopped garlic
1 sm can tomato sauce or sm can of tomatoes (only difference is color rice ends up. I prefer the tomato sauce myself.)
2 cups chicken broth, you can use 2 cubes bullion and 2 C hot water
In large stock pot boil whole chicken (skin, bones and all), use enough water to cover. When chicken is cooked remove to cool.
Use a strainer to clean all the "floaties" from the broth and let simmer.
Drop in rest of ingredients and make rice.
Your skillet needs a lid. Have rice ingredients ready this goes quickly.
Warm heavy skillet over med-hi heat. Add oil, swirl and add rice.
Stir rice to ensure even "tanning" you want a light to medium color for best flavor. DO NOT BURN.
Add onion, continue to stir 2 mins. Add garlic, give quick stir and drop in tomato sauce or tomatoes, stirring quickly. Add broth, give a quick stir, put lid on and reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes. Turn off heat and let rice rest about 5 minutes.
While rice is simmering, debone chicken, add to pot. (Yes I leave the skin on, you don't have to)
To serve, add a large spoon of rice to bowl and ladle some soup over top.
Yummy
I like to use leftover steak tips or roast beef but take some beef and cut up tiny....if it is fresh beef then just cut it up and saute in a little worcestershire sauce and garlic powder just to brown.
In the meantime I take carrots, celery onion mushrooms zucchini or any fresh veggie you like. I take 3 beef bouillion cubes and two chicken (Knorr is my favorite) add to the veggies and cover with water and boil for 15 minutes then simmer for about an hour. I also add about 1/2 tsp cajun seasoning as it gives it the right flavor for some reason.
To that I add 2 each chicken broth and beef broth, 3/4 cup barley and the meat and simmer on low for a few hours to get the flavor.
This makes a big pot and it freezes well although it rarely makes it to the freezer.
Not sure what to say for this; are you requesting a vegetable soup for vegetarian reasons? I'd have no suggestions there. If I chicken base is OK, why not just use chicken stock, dillute with some water and add whatever vegetables you like?
I'm partial to parsnips, carrot, potatoes, tomatoes and peas. Season with salt, pepper, bay leaf and sage or whatever you like.
No, not a vegetarian, I just don't like meat in my soups Everyone I know thinks that is strange, but I never eat any meat I put in soup so I might as well go without.
