Chicken Noodle Soup

SUBMITTED BY: Diane Edgecomb

"I like making homemade noodles and I often add carrots, potatoes and corn to this soup. To me, homemade soup means homemade bread, too! Rich soup and fresh bread...what great country food at any time of year."

This was a super easy recipe! I had a 5.5lb pkg of legs/thighs and they did the trick for 2 whole pots of soup. I altered one pot by adding an 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, 1/2 tsp. cumin and just a sprinkle of chili powder. Both soups were fantastic. I didn't have thin noodles so plain egg noodles did the trick for us. Both of my sons and my fiance were already asking me to make this again!

This soup is super-tasty ans super-easy to make! My whole family loved it. I used ~10 skinned chx legs & 2 cans low-sodium chx broth (instead of boullion) and then added water to bring the liquid total up to 3 quarts. I think I will add 2 cups carrots and some frozen peas next time to add more veges. I also used whole wheat linguini(broken-up) instead of fine noodles, and this was yummy too. But I will definitely make this again!
