Chicken Soup recipe 11/25/11

It's that time of the year and I am reposting this recipe so those of my friends who are sick can use it. And to those who are healthy, you can use it too. =] God Bless.
Louise’s Chicken Soup
This is my version of a recipe that has been in my family for years.  It’s perfect for when you feel a cold coming on or if you have one.  There’s no added salt, spices, herbs, or oil.  If you choose to add some, you can do so when it’s done.

Ingredients:
4 Chicken Thighs
4 Chicken Drumsticks
3 – 4 Medium Onions sliced
1 – 2 Heads of Garlic, all the cloves crushed
1 – 2 Peppers sliced (red, orange, or yellow)
Put all the ingredients in a large pot with enough water to just cover everything. When the water starts to boil, put a lid on the pot and lower heat to simmer.
Simmer for an hour and a half
Then take lid off and turn the heat on high and cook uncovered for another 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve with crackers or hot crusty bread for dunking!
