Chicken Soup for the Soul. And the Tummy

 I keep a "soup bag" in the freezer in which I store chicken bones and vegetable trimmings. When I'm running low on bone broth I toss the contents of the bag into the Instant Pot and make a new batch, which I keep on hand in a McMenamins beer growler in the fridge. My broth is always really flavorful and makes a great addition to recipes that need broth. 

Today I used my broth to make a batch of chicken noodle soup. I sauteed a diced onion, several multicolor carrots, 4 stalks of celery and 3 cubes of Dorot frozen garlic (love that stuff!) and got it all nice and caramelized, then added my most recent batch of broth and the meat off some leftover Cornish game hens. Brought it to a boil and added a couple of bundles of lo mein noodles and bingo! Comfort food for the week. I'll send some with Janet for lunches, too.
