When I was growing up, my mom would make this easy chicken broth (Affiliate Link) recipe, and I will share it with you. My mom worked long hours, and this recipe helped her create several meals from one dish. She was not only making chicken broth (Affiliate Link), but she also made an orzo or pastina soup recipe, a chicken salad recipe, and a mashed potato and carrot recipe. Yes, all of these recipes came from this one recipe and it's super easy to make. Stay tuned and find out.
