Chicken, White Bean and Leek Soup

I forgot to get a picture of this dish, but it was really good. It's a very light tasting, but very flavorful soup, and very healthy.

Chicken, White Bean and Leek Soup

1 pound chicken

2 cans cannelini beans

3 leeks, chopped

1 pound red potatoes, diced

1 cup carrots, diced

3 stalks celery, diced

4-6 cups chicken broth

Bake the chicken at 350 degrees about 1 hour, or until juices run clear. While chicken is baking, diced the vegetables. Once chicken is baked, chop or shred it into bite size pieces and then set aside. Stir fry* vegetables in a big soup spot until they are just getting tender. Add the broth, and heat to boiling, then add the chicken and the beans. Salt and pepper to taste (this had a very nice, mellow flavor, and I didn't add any salt or pepper to it, I preferred the taste of the vegetables.) Serve and enjoy!

*Stir frying the vegetables instead of boiling them helps to maintain their fresh flavor, and makes the soup more flavorful. This was a tip from my sister, and I thought it made the soup taste better.
