chicken lime throw it together crockpot soup!

Soup making is a skill of mine I have to admit.  I love to browse random related recipes and get inspiration for dinner.  Using only what I had on hand I whipped up this fantastic soup.  It was very good!  and so very easy :)

this is what i had on hand.  and it worked!

Really this is not a lot of ingredients.  I threw the broth, chicken, cumin, carrots, garlic, rice and onion in the crockpot around 10am on a lazy weekend morning.  Put it on low and checked it about 3pm.  Gave it a good stir and added the corn, beans and cabbage, then let it cook 'til dinner time, 5pm.  I then added the lime juice and served it up with some plain yogurt on top.



















It really did turn out amazing.  Most of the family had seconds. Yum!
