Does anyone have a really good chicken noodle soup recipe? My Dad LOVES chicken noodle soup, so I'd like to make some.

    I make a homemade chicken noodle soup that is pretty easy. I just throw stuff in to taste.

    In a large pot add:

    1 whole chicken cut up
    reduced sodium chicken broth- cover till 1-2 inches over the chicken

    Boil for about 45 min or until chicken is done.

    Take chicken out and turn off flame.
    Put chicken in a bowl and place in the freezer for 15 min.

    Take chicken out and peel off meat.
    Add meat to stock pot.
    Add veggies that you would like to the pot.
    Cook on high for 15 minutes.
    Add noodles of choice and cook for 10 minutes on high.
    Turn flame down to low and let simmer for another 15 minutes to marry flavors

    Enjoy!

    I have a chicken noodle soup that I like to make, just made some the other day actually! Don't really have a recipe written down but basically all I do is boil and shred some boneless, skinless, chicken breast..about 1/2 lb.

    In a large pot add about 2 tbsp olive or canola oil
    an onion, diced
    2-3 cloves garlic, minced
    2-3 carrots, diced
    2-3 stalks of celery, diced
    1 bay leaf
    1-2 tsp thyme or 4-5 fresh thyme sprigs

    Cook that together for about 5-8 min until the veggies are softened but don't brown them. Add about 2 quarts of chicken stock, I make mine with Better Than Boullion Chicken Base. Bring that to a boil then add about 8 oz of pasta (I use wide egg noodles). Simmer until pasta is tender. Add chicken and some fresh parsley, heat through and serve! It's really yummy!

    Chciken soup is super easy to make. I like getting those pre-baked chickens from the grocery store and just tear off the chicken from that.

    I saute onions, celery, and garlic in some olive oil, add two huge cans of low sodium chicken broth, add carrots, celery and potatos. Spice it up like crazy with thyme, basil, oregano, bay leaves, and some spade seasoning.

    For a little kick I add a TINY bit of sirachi rooster hot sauce. Just a few drops is all it needs.

    I use macaroni salad noodles but keep them separate from the soup so you can control how much goes in to each serving.

    We eat off this for a whole week.
