Happy Wednesday. Today, I’m in your inbox to share a beloved recipe from my childhood: my mom’s chicken corn soup. It’s a comforting soup that’s filled with farfalle, potatoes, and soup vegetables in a rich, savory chicken broth. It’s truly the pinnacle of unfussy comfort food.
I also served it in the beautiful tureen set she and my dad bought for me when I was in my tureen tizzy. How pretty is this vintage serving set? I’ll be breaking it out for Thanksgiving this year, too!
In an effort to document more of my family’s recipes, I’ll be making my dad’s shepherd’s pie next week. I know you’ll love that one as much as I do. And if I can convince my mom to give me her fried pork chop recipe, I’ll share that one too. :)
For now, let’s dig into my recipes for the week!
My Mom’s Chicken Corn Soup
When I think of the dinners I loved most from my mom, a handful immediately come to mind, like her spaghetti and meatballs, chicken tenders, and fried pork chops.
Her chicken corn soup, however, was a staple in our house, and you could always smell it the minute you got off the school bus in the afternoon. I’m so happy to share this soup that brings back so many memories with you all, and maybe, it will even make its way into your own personal food traditions.

Chicken and Rice
My chicken and rice is more like a hearty stew than a soup. Add additional water if you want it a little soupier. On a cold night, however, I can’t help but want something thick and stewy that really sticks to the ribs. It’s so comforting!
Vegan Radish Top Miso Ramen
If you pick up a tub of miso for the chickpeas above, use it again here in this radish-top miso ramen. It’s so easy to make, and so flavorful.
