-from Lisa and Becky of "At Home America" This makes a huge amount, so you can adjust the amounts. 3 whole chickens (I used 1 large one) 2 lg. white onions (I used one) 1/2 c. celery flakes 1 c. parsley flakes 1 lg. pkg. soup noodles 1/2 c. McCormick's Salt-n-Spice (I used 1 packet McCormick's White Chicken Chilie Seasoning Mix) 1/8 c. salt 1/8 c. pepper 1/8 c. basil 1 pkg. baby carrots 1 bunch celery (I used 1 pkg frozen spinach) 1 pkg. frozen cut green beans 1 pkg. frozen corn 1 lg. pkg fresh sliced mushrooms 2 lg. cans chicken broth ( I used 1 box of Swanson's chicken broth-MSG free) Boil chicken(s) in water with one sliced white onion and 1/2 of the Salt-n-spice until chicken is completely cooked. Drain chicken, save broth after boiling and de-bone. In remaining broth, add boxed chicken broth, carrots, celery, mushrooms, and 1/3 to 1/2 of chicken and spices. Simmer for approx. 90 min.
