Soup for Sick People (& others too)


 I searched high and low for a Chicken Noodle Soup recipe that looked good and simple. The challenge was that I had limited ingredients at home, and being sick, I didn't want to run to the store. So here it is...

The perfect Chicken Noodle Soup for sick people who don’t want to go to the store for tons of ingredients.


Ingredients:
·         Whole wheat egg noodles (about half of a bag)
·         One box of organic chicken broth
·         Mini carrots- cut into small pieces
·         Celery- cut into small pieces
Pre- cooked ingredients
·         Onion- cut into small pieces
·         2-3 chicken breasts
·         1 bay leaf
·         Herbs de provence
·         1 garlic clove




Directions:
Pour the chicken broth into a large pot. I added about 3 cups of water to the pot and stirred. Add all of the vegetables, chicken, garlic, bay leaf, and Herbs de Province (as much as you like). Allow to lightly boil for about 30 minutes (until the chicken is cooked). Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the soup and allow to cool. Let the rest of the soup continue to cook. Once the chicken has cooled, shred it and add back to the soup. Add the egg noodles for about 5 minutes.



Voila!
I had soup for 3 days… simple and good!
