Best Chicken
Vegetable Soup

This is one of the best chicken soup recipes.
It's got a sweet potaoto in it along with all
of the other vegetables, this is so good!
I serve this along with some cooked egg noodles.

Ingredients:
2 quarts of chicken broth
1 chicken (about 3-4 pounds), quartered
1 large carrot, peeled and cup up
1 large onion, peeled and cup up
1 stalk celery, peeled
1 leek, white part only, washed well
1 parsnip, peeled and cut up
1 parsley root, with greens attached
1 sweet potato, peeled
a handful of dill (about 3-4 stems)
1 small rutabaga, peeled and cut up
a few sprigs of cilantro (optional)
Salt to taste
black pepper to taste

Directions:
Put chicken broth in pot; bring to boil.
Add chicken. Return to boil; lower heat.
Gently simmer uncovered for 1 hour.
Add the rest of the ingredients.
Simmer for one-half hour more,
stir occasionally. Skim fat from top.
Pour into bowls; into each bowl add a
slice of carrot and a sprig of cilantro.
