Easy Chicken and Noodle Soup
Soup is one of our favorites and having an easy chicken and noodle soup recipe on hand helps when needing to make soup at the request of a sick family member. My youngest was not feeling well and asked me to make her some chicken noodle soup. I’m so glad I had some noodles in the freezer so I could make her this delicious hearty soup.
Once she was able to eat she felt much better! My daughter claims that she will only eat chicken noodle soup when she is sick. Isn’t it funny how others relate food to different times in their lives? I do the same thing. Chicken noodle soup just goes well when you are not feeling good!
This is a simple recipe and does not take very long to make. You will definitely need a large pan. I always make more than enough because we love leftovers, and you will certainly have leftovers. Lots of noodles, veggies and chicken make this a delicious tasting soup! And… you don’t need to have a sick loved one to make this! ;)

I cooked this tonight for dinner. It was delicious! I never would have added milk. It makes it so much richer. Hubby and I both loved it!
