Natalie's Chicken Noodle Soup

Well the holiday's have come & gone, which has left both the dude & I with a nasty cold & cough.  So I went on my favorite website (skinny taste.com) & searched for Chicken Soup recipes, which to my surprise- I couldn't find one!  I did, however, find a Turkey Noodle Soup recipe & added some things and took out some things, so I can actually call it Natalie's Chicken Noodle Soup!

Here is the link to the Turkey Noodle Soup in case you would like to make it

Now- Here is my version

Ingredients:

  • 6 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup diced carrot
  • 3/4 cup diced celery
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 oz uncooked No Yolk egg noodles
  • 3 cans shredded chicken
  • dried minced onions
  • dried minced garlic
  • garlic powder
  • garlic salt
  • dried parsley
  • 1/2 chicken bouillon
You can also add onions, but if you are a regular on my blog- you know my love for onions...

Directions:

Fill a large saucepan with chicken broth. Add bay leaf, carrots, onion, celery, garlic, black pepper to taste and simmer 10-15 minutes, until the vegetables are soft. Add parsley, noodles and shredded turkey; cook according to noodle directions, about 5 minutes.

Discard bay leaf and serve.
