I had some leftover chicken that I had smoked and was in the mood for chicken noodle soup, so this is the result: Harvest soup!

Recipe:

Harvest soup

1 small or medium spaghetti squash
1 packet Lipton Onion Soup mix
~6 oz cooked chicken, shredded (I used leftover smoked chicken, but rotisserie chicken would also be yummy)
salt & pepper, to taste
Cholula hot sauce (or Tabasco, or pepper sauce)

Cut spaghetti squash in half (a cleaver works well) and place cut-side-down in a microwave safe casserole dish. Add about 1/2″ water and cover with wax paper or plastic wrap. Cook for 10-12  min, or until squash “noodles” pull off easily with fork. While squash is cooking in the microwave, add chicken and onion soup mix to 4 cups of water; heat to low boil on stove. Add squash to chicken soup and turn to low/med heat to simmer. Add salt, pepper and Cholula sauce, to taste. (I used about 6-7 shakes of pepper sauce.)

Ladle into bowls and serve hot. This recipe makes a rather thick soup; if you prefer soupier soup, add chicken broth and adjust seasonings, as you prefer. Enjoy!
