Bon appetit!

10. Season with salt, pepper, Mrs. Dash, or whatever seasonings you feel it needs and that is ready to go!

9. Roughly chop some spinach and mix it in close to the end.

8. For gnocchi your can prepare it separately and add at the end if you don't like it squishy, but I just like to dump it in. You can use fresh, frozen, or dollar tree premade cheap stuff. It will usually cook enough on its own inside the soup.

7. I will usually add about a cup or two of milk, just feel it out if your soup is getting to thick or could stand to be creamier.

6 While that simmers, add a can of chicken. Since it's a soup, it's perfectly acceptable to add more dubious ingredients, but feel free to use fresh stuff too, I just think you can't really tell the difference.

5. Add 6 cups of chicken stock andz bring to a simmer. I used box stock because it was on sale, but sometimes I'll mix bullion with the flour mixture and then just add water.

4. Add around 1/4 to 1/2 cup of flour to your preferred thickness and mix until the flour is one with the veggies and butter.

3. Think about how much garlic would be too much, then double that amount and mix it in until fragrant.

2. Add your diced/grated mix of onion, celery, and carrots and heart until softened.

1. As all good things begin, melt an entire stick of butter
