Borscht [it's snowing outside] {A Recipe}

The other day was one of those days that practically begged to have a bowl of soup for supper: the snow was falling and there was no sign of it stopping; the fire was blazing in our wood stove; and the next day was our day off… All together, it felt like a yummy bowl of soup and a movie was the cozy winter thing to do.  You know what I’m talking about.

If I hadn’t already had something planned for supper, I totally would have made some Borscht and biscuits.

Borscht, or German Cabbage Soup, is a simple soup with something about it that just shouts “Comfort Food.”  I don’t know how or why.  It just does. So don’t let the cabbage scare you off!

1-2 Chicken breasts, cut in chunks
1 onion, diced
1/2 head of cabbage, finely chopped
2-3 carrots, chopped
1 can diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cups broth (you may need more, depending on how soupy you like your soup!)
1-2 teaspoons parsley, dill, or any other spices that sound good.

Cook chicken until tender.
Add other ingredients and bring to a boil. 
Let simmer for 20-30 minutes or until cabbage and carrots are tender. 

Serve with biscuits.
