Chicken Noodle Soup Recipes
I really like chicken noodle soup, but don't have a clue how to make it. (and the canned stuff isn't nearly as yummy) What's your favorite recipe for it? I wanna try a few and see what I like best.

Re: Chicken Noodle Soup Recipes
I know if you use a whole chicken is probably more nourishing because oh the nutrients involved in the bones but I do a quicker version in the Crockpot with cut up white meat chicken breasts,organic or all natural no-MSG chicken broth - 2 of the soft containers - sea salt added towards end so chicken doesnt get tough,minced garlic,cut up onion,celery if you like,carrots - either sliced or a bag of baby carrots would work,parsley and could throw in a handful of green frozen peas if you like towards end of cooking time.I let it get all heated up on high then turn down to low.I cook egg noodles or rice sep. so they dont get mushy and then add.Just simmer for several hours until carrots tender and chick fully cooked and serve with the cooked noodles or rice.Im not much of a measuring person

Re: Chicken Noodle Soup Recipes
That's ok. The lady who's been teaching me some cooking basics never measures. I'm not sure she even owns measuring cups.
That sounds like a yummy recipe. I'll have to pick up a couple ingredients and do it in the next week or so!

Re: Chicken Noodle Soup Recipes
I start this in the crockpot so it can cook overnight or all day long whether I'm at home or not. Then I move it to my stock pot about 6 hours before I'm going to serve.
I start with a whole chicken (can be frozen), 2 or 3 onions quartered, several stalks of celery chopped pretty small, whatever carrots I have, 1-2 TBSP vinegar, garlic, salt, pepper and all the water that the pot will hold. I let that go on low at least until the chicken is falling apart. Pull all the chicken and bones out of the pot and transfer the liquid and mushy veggies into the stock pot. Put all the bones back in, add water and simmer. About an hour before serving, remove bones and blend what's left. (I use a hand blender, but you can actually do it in a stand blender in batches.) Add 1-2 cups of the previously removed shredded meat. You can also add 1-2 of fresh chopped veggies if you like that in your soup. If I do this, I typically use carrots. I just boil the noodles in the soup itself about 15 mins. before serving. ~HTH

Re: Chicken Noodle Soup Recipes
Mine is super easy. I stole it, I think, from Rabbit's blog.
Dice up carrot and onion and whatever other vegies you want to use (I usually use zucchini). Gently saute in a big saucepan until onion is soft, then add stock (or, if you haven't got any or you're too broke to get it, like me, water is fine!) and simmer for a few more minutes. When it's nearly done, shred in chicken (I poach a breast fillet and shred that) and add your pre-cooked noodles (I use the dried rice noodles which you just pour boiling water over to soften) and season - I use salt, pepper, and a dash of soy sauce, serve up the kids, then add a big dash of sweet chilli sauce for me and DH! Takes about 20 minutes from start to table and it's yummy!
