Healthy and Winter-y

I'm getting my wisdom teeth out today...lucky me! I've held off too long, so now you can see both my wisdom teeth really well and they're hurting. Hopefully I'll be coherent enough to post  tomorrow, but I make no guarantees. Maybe while the hubs is home taking care of me and Norah, he can do a little somethin' somethin' on here too ;)

If you're like me, you looove all the food that comes along with the cold season, but don't necessarily like how it makes you feel afterwards...I have found ways to this wintry heart to tummy happiness a couple ways and I wanted to share this one with you today! It is the EASIEST thing ever, so many serving to last a couple days (1 day if you're feeding Nick Hansen) but truly, a couple days for normal eaters, and tastes mmm mmm good!! Here is the quick and easy recipe that will warm up your body:) Nick informed me this morning that this needs to be something we make weekly for the rest of Winter, SOLD! 

(All Organic)

1 container chicken broth (32 oz)

2 chicken breast

2 cups chopped celery

2 cups chopped carrots

1/2 red onion

1/2 cup green onion

2 tsp minced garlic

1 1/2 tsp garlic powder

salt and pepper to taste (about 2 tsp each)

**optional - 1 cup brown rice

Prep: chop celery, carrots, red and green onions. Boil chicken for about 10 minutes, when cooked and white all the way through, drain and put chicken in a bowl to cool down a little bit. Once you are able to handle the chicken, shred it with your hands or 2 forks. Throw all ingredients into Crock Pot on low for 6 hours. 

**If you want to add some brown rice, do so 1 hour before serving.
