Ingredients
2 - skinless, boneless chicken breasts, or boneless chicken thighs (about 16 oz total) cut into bite size pieces2 carrots cleaned & sliced7 stalks of celery sliced (I like the use the heart of the celery & put the greenery in too)1 large onion diced1/4 c dry navy beans1/4 c dry garbanzo (chick peas)1/4 c dry pearl barley1/4 c brown rice (uncooked)1/4 c wild rice (uncooked)1/4 c farro (uncooked)1/4 c quinoa (uncooked)Sea Salt, Pepper & Parsley to taste.Water
Directions
Add 2 cups of water to a 5 quart soup pot. Add all other ingredients & turn burner to high to start boiling. Add more water to fill pot to within 1 - 1 1/2 inches from top. Bring to rolling boil. Put lid on & turn burner down to a strong simmer. Remove lid & stir occasionally. If the water boils down, add more water to bring the level back up. Continue cooking until all beans and grains are done. This should be about 3 hours. I let it simmer on low heat & stir occasionally so it won't stick.

     I do not see that Bragg liquid aminos are added to the recipe--Where is it listed? - 4/18/15

     The liquid amino is what's throwing the calorie/protein count off. Whatever you put in says that 2 tsp liquid amino yields 4 calories and 840 g of protein. That's physically impossible (for protein, the conversion is 4 calories per gram, I believe). - 1/20/15

     1/4 cup of dry navy beans is in the recipe twice. Is this correct?
    Agree that the calorie count isn't quite right. - 2/4/13

     I added thyme, used turkey broth instead of water an it was still so so, ok but not great, I think all the beans/rice cook at different times so some are overcooked, next time I will make my soup from the dried multibean packages in the store and more spices! - 1/24/16
