Thanks to Jan May for submitting this recipe! You could easily make this GFCF. Here are her notes:
Here is a yummy creamy chicken and broccoli soup with tarragon recipe that is comforting and filling! It was passed down from my mother-in-law who was in the catering business. I make it for my family and we all love it! You can switch out the vegetables or add different ones as you like. Portobello mushrooms are incredible with this! Sautee them first in butter before you add them.
The other night I went to the grocery store. Alone. Yes, alone. It is just easier on me that way–mentally and physically.

Let’s get real. Most of you reading this are women. Among that set, most of you are moms (and if you’re not, you can still read on). What’s life really like?

I usually feel intimidated by organization books, but Anne shares personal stories that let you know she’s been where you are! Here’s a nice, professional picture of her. If you want to see a more realistic day-to-day family picture, you’ll have to order her book! She’s not afraid to show you her home and her family. Continue reading
