I slow-cooked a young hen from WF a few days ago and said I'd do something different with it than chicken soup.

However, it is so freaking cold here (and with a nasty wind chill, too) that chicken soup is the perfect solution for tonight. Consequently, I searched under "unusual chicken soup recipes" and while I didn't find recipes, I found a page of ideas. I'm going to make smaller batches, since I have so much broth, and try 3-4 of the different ideas.

The first one I'm trying tonight will be Sopa de Fideo. It will have noodles, but also cilantro and avocado. Onion, garlic, and Tex-Mex seasonings. I found the different ideas at Daily Meal.

Now for all you smart pants cultural recipe purist people out there, I am aware that Sopa de Fideo does not actually have chicken in it, but the suggestion says to go ahead and put it in anyway.

I think I'll also pop a batch of cornbread in the cast iron skillet in the oven, too.

Pink Lady kombucha.

Raspberries for dessert, over a toasted waffle and Greek yogurt.
Decaf coffee.

1. Pecan-crusted baked wild salmon, sweet potato

We aren't dessert people, but there will be a glass of wine later in the evening.

2. Lentil soup, sun dried tomato and rosemary focaccia with pear crisp for dessert.

3. I'm almost through the barley soup

It got so thick, I don't think I should call it soup. It tastes good and reminds me of the soup my Mom made and ate. Since it is so thick, I heated some up, and then heated a burrito shell. I filled the shell with the barley and topped it with some french-fried onions for crunch, rolled it up and ate it. That was pretty good. Maybe I invented a new barley meal. lol

Broccoli salad

9. Soup here too

My sis made me some turkey soup out of the Thanksgiving leftovers.
She also made some turkey salad, which I had on a toasted English muffin.

Dessert is banana cream pie.
