Codeine, Chicken Soup and Prince Charming
I learned three things this past week. One I’m codeine intolerant. It made feel like I washed down 2 pounds of broccoli with 4 shots of vodka then got on the teacup ride at Disneyland. It lasted for miserable 36+ hours, the dizziness is still lingering. Seriously, it’s that bad. Worse than the flu itself. Secondly, I came up a with a simple chicken soup recipe that was perfect for my lack of appetite. Thirdly, my husband really is my Prince Charming. He’s been taking care of me without complaint for almost a week. Thank you my love.
Chicken Soup
8 cups of chicken broth
6-8 chicken breasts (cut up into bite sized pieces)
1 cup of diced carrots
1 cup of frozen peas
1 cup of diced onions
1 cup of green beans (cut or snapped into short pieces)
4-6 cloves of garlic, diced
1 tsp dill
1 tsp ground coriander
Salt to taste
Put everything in a large stock pot and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 60 minutes.
Makes 8 servings.
I know I usually do the macros but being on the computer makes my dizziness worse. I’ll get to it later. I hope your week is going well.

From one codeine intolerant gal to another: **hope you feel much better soon!** (PS – I always say I am allergic to it whenever whomever ask if I have any allergies, etc. – covers all the bases 😉
Sorry you are sick my friend. I hope you feel better soon!
love,
