Instructions: Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. Saute in 2 tsp canola oil (or less if you can manage to use less). Remove from saute pan and put into soup pot.

Add water, vegetarian chicken bouillon powder, chopped carrots, chopped celery and corn kernels (I used frozen and didnt bother to defrost them first... just put them into the pot). Cook about 1 hr. on med-low.

Add orzo to the soup pot.

Meanwhile, also cook penne pasta in another pot of boiling salted water.

When it is done, drain and add pasta to the soup pot. Continue to cook for approx 5 min to meld flavors.

This was very, very good. Didnt require much in "watching" time. Made the house smell wonderful!!

NOTES : Well, it was rainy and cool here today so I decided to make a warm soup for dinner. I couldnt find any recipes that I had saved that I wanted to make
or had all the ingredients already in the house to complete the recipe....
so I decided to just put something together. It was very, very good!!
