"I cut down on the butter, increased the vegetables and eliminated the half-and-half cream. This lower-fat version is truly delicious...and no one can tell it's light!"

Steps:
- Bring the water and broth to a boil in a stockpot. Then add the carrots, celery, chicken, bay leaf, and salt. Cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes (set a timer) or until chicken is cooked through.
- While the soup is simmering, prepare the jasmine rice. Rinse your rice by pouring 1 cup of rice into a medium bowl. Fill the bowl with water until rice is completely covered. Stir the rice around using clean hands. Pour cloudy water out and repeat rinsing the rice a couple more times.
- Add 2 cups of water to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add 1 cup of jasmine rice. Cover and reduce heat. Simmer for about 18 minutes-20 minutes without lifting the lid (time may vary depending on stove type). Fluff cooked rice with a fork and set aside.
- 5 minutes before the timer for the soup goes off, add the asparagus to the stockpot.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, then add 1 tbsp of olive oil. Wait for the oil to heat up (1-2 minutes), then add mushrooms and a sprinkle of salt. Cook until tender (about 5 minutes), then add mushrooms to the stockpot.
- Remove chicken from the stockpot and shred with a fork. Add the shredded chicken back to the soup.
- Turn the heat off, remove the bay leaf from the soup, and add fresh chopped parsley, pepper, and more salt as needed. Add cooked jasmine rice to soup bowl after serving. Enjoy!

CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE FROM SCRATCH
This recipe is from a Pillsbury Classic cookbook and, with a few minor modifications, I wanted to share it. It is a truly home-made with love chicken soup. I am making it today because....I feel a cold coming on and just want to curl up with a steaming bowl of deliciousness!! :-) I suppose you could make this in a crock pot but the thought of a soup pot on the stove is comfort in itself!! (Note: If you prefer noodles to rice, add 1 cup of uncooked egg noodles during last 10 minutes of cooking time).

Steps:
- Combine chicken and water in large pot. Bring to a boil. Skimm off any scum that rises to the top.
- Reduce heat to med/low; cover and simmer 15 minutes.
- Add onion, salt, thyme, bay leaf, garlic and peppercorns. Simmer covered for additional 35 to 45 minutes or until chicken falls off the bone.
- Remove chicken, bay leaf and peppercorns from broth; cool.
- Remove chicken from bones; cut into bite size pieces.
- Skim fat from broth. You may want to put broth into the fridge for several hours or overnight. It is easier to remove the fat.
- Bring broth to a boil. Stir in chicken pieces, celery, carrots and rice - I add a little more onion too. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until veggies/rice are tender. I add the peas for the last 10 minutes. If you are using noodles instead of rice, add uncooked noodles at this stage.
- Add parsley or green onion if desired.
