More or less. A can of broth, a half onion, a chicken breast, with about 12 oz. of water, a 1/2 bag of frozen mixed veg, a small potato, about 1/2 cup of okra. I have barley, so I cook about 1/3 cup of barley in a different pot and add it to the main pot. I add my herbs and spices, and garlic of course. I make enough to get 3-5 servings, which lasts 4 or 5 days.

I have a method, but not a recipe
