I took the advice of somebody here a few weeks ago, and started saving all
my stuff that would have gone down the disposal in the freezer. Onion tops
and skins, celery heads and feet, that cilantro I bought to make salsa that
I knew would never last until I needed cilantro again, the bones from my
fried chicken Saturday night, the bones from the BBQ pork ribs I ate for
lunch today, etc.

To start my stock, I just boiled all this. It smelled great even then.

Then I strained this all out, added my whole chicken breast, and cooked it.
Then, took out the breast, and cooked my veggies with all the right spices.
Now, we are really smelling good.

Shredded the chicken breast and added it when the veggies were done. Added
the breast bone as well. Simmered it a bit to let everything blend.

Best smelling and tasting chicken soup I have ever made.
