Homemade Soup--Microwave 14 cups of water 10-14 tbsp chicken soup base 1 or 2 chicken breasts 1 small onion (optional) 1/4 cup rice 1/4 cup barley 1/4 cup alphabet pasta ones 1-2 potatoes cut into bite-size cubes 19 oz can tomatoes Fill pot (I use the 5 qt. one) with water and get it boiling. While waiting for the water to boil, I microwave a chicken breast until cooked. Cube the chicken and place in water. Then add the chicken soup base. This must go according to your taste. I like it to just start looking the color of chicken bouillon and still not too salty. Then add the rice, barley, alphabets, potatoes and tomatoes. Let it simmer gently for about 1/2 hr. I don't put any salt or pepper or spices. We add that when we eat it. If you put more rice, barley or alphabets than is called for, it will get too thick. Still good, but more like eating a bowl of macaroni. Freezes well.
