Chicken Noodle Soup

Chicken Noodle Soup

• Baby, Hubby and I have all had the flu this week and this was just what we needed. Anytime is a good time for some Chicken Noodle Soup though!

Makes 6 servings
1 store bought deli roast chicken
2 quarts (8 cups) cold water
2 carrots, washed and sliced into circles
3 celery ribs, chopped
1 small onion
2 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
salt and pepper to taste
sprinkle of thyme
2 cups uncooked noodles
Juice from half a lemon
4 sprigs of parsley roughly chopped ( I used dry parsley)

1 Place the chicken, water, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and thyme in a large stock pot over med. Heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 20-25 mins; remove the chicken.


2 Shred the meat, discarding the skin and bones. Season the broth with salt and pepper to taste; add the noodles and shredded chicken. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until noodles are cooked.




3 Add lemon juice and parsley; Serve.

Happy cooking,
Chaeli
