My dad has some kind of cold or flu. He's sick, so that means it's time to make matzo ball soup. For every recipe in my mother's arsenal there's a story that goes along with it. This dish on the other hand seems to have a whole chapter, volumes of tales. For now, here's my mom's recipe.

CHICKEN SOUP WITH MATZO BALLS
1 chicken (cut up)
low fat, low sodium, chicken stock (32. oz.)
1 whole onion
2 stalks celery cut in large chunks
4 carrots, sliced in similar sized pieces
3-4 cloves garlic
a few sprinkles of hot red pepper flakes
fresh parsley
fresh dill
Salt & pepper
4 eggs
matzo meal
In the midst of all this, which took about 2 hours to make, she some how also managed to make meatballs and bbq chicken. I used to be mostly a vegetarian.
