*One of Mary Myrick’s best recipes*

Ingredients:

• 1 16oz. can chicken broth (such as Swanson’s or Sweet Sue)
• 1 can chicken and dumplings (such as Sweet Sue or Progresso)
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1 cup chopped sweet onion
• 1 cup chopped carrots
• 1 cup chopped potatoes
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 Bay leaf
• salt and pepper to taste

Put all ingredients into a large soup pot and simmer over low heat for 2 hours. Remove Bay leaf before serving.

Nice creamy tasty soup. You could substitute another cream soup for the cream of mushroom. You could use canned peas and corn (drained, of course) in place of the frozen, but add them toward the end of cooking time, so as not to overcook them. I would think that a cup of frozen shredded hash browns could be substituted for raw potatoes. I have used them in other soups to save time.
