Comfort food, chicken noodle soup and egg salad

So, it's a rainy day post Calisto and time for some comfort food and relaxation with my pretty show flowers.  The show went super well and I wish we had a few more performances, but alas! we do not.  So since my schedule was crazy busy with the show, I haven't had much time to food shop.  The fridge was pretty much empty except for some staple vegetables, left over chicken, eggs, chicken broth and pasta.  So, what did I come up with? chicken noodle soup and egg salad.

Chicken noodle soup

1 carton of chicken broth

carrots

onions

celery

garlic powder

chicken chopped

gluten free spaghetti broken up

salt and pepper

I didn't measure the ingredients in this soup.  I pretty much just eye balled everything and did everything to taste. Throw everything into a pot and let them boil until the veggies and noodles are soft. Then enjoy!

As for the egg salad, I threw 6 eggs into a small pot of water and brought them to a boil, let it boil for about 2 minutes, then turn the pot off and let the eggs sit in the hot water until they cool off for about 15 minutes.  I rinsed the eggs in cool water, peeled them, and chopped them into a bowl.  I also chopped a small amount of white onion, do this to taste, throw in about a 1/3 of a cup of mayo, and 1 tbs of mustard.  Salt and pepper to taste and mix it all together! Super simple and incredibly yummy on some gluten free toast.  

I love how it feels to have a couple of lazy days after weeks of non stop hard work and fun performing, and yummy comfort food just makes it that much better.
