Curly Noodle Chicken Soup

“Diners will ladle out praises all around the table when you serve this flavorful soup. 'My husband and three sons can't get enough of it,' says Maxine Pierson of San Ramon, California. 'I created this recipe for a dinner I hosted for a group of friends. The main course was Italian, and I needed a good soup, so I converted a favorite tortilla soup recipe by substituting pasta and adding different seasonings.'”

I have been making this soup for the last couple of years. Originally saw it in Light and Tasty magazine. It is wonderful! There is nothing left when my family of 4 gets done. Even my daughter who despises onions didn't even realize they were in the soup and she loves it! The flavor is rich and hearty. I highly recommend!

What an awesome soup! Only change I made- and it wasn't intentional- was I used a can of chili ready diced tomatoes- didn't realize it till I already added it to the soup! I panicked, thinking it would ruin the soup, but it was fabulous. I also used mezze penne for the pasta, but pasta's pasta. I love the broth of this soup. My only complaint is that it didn't make enough! lol I'll be doubling this later this week. Thanks!

This is absolutely the simplest and best tasting chicken noodle soup. I made it as the recipe called for, and it completely disappeared. My dad had me make it again. This time I made a double batch.

This is very good. I "tweaked" it a little though: I used green onions instead of a regular onion, and otherwise basically doubled the recipe except instead of adding double the carrots, celery and tomatoes, I added 10 oz chopped spinach leaves (lotsa iron!), a chopped red bell pepper, and a chopped summer squash. It was so pretty with all the colors in the bowl, and my husband, who was sick in bed with a cold, ate two HUGE bowls and asked me if I could "make some more for tomorrow night!" It's gotta be good for you with all those vegetables in it! ! ! We will definitely be enjoying this one again!

This soup was very tasty, easy to prepare and hearty. My family all loved it, even my 5 year old who was complaining that he didn't want soup for dinner-lol! I added slied zucchini in with the chicken and veggies along with a bay leaf. When it was time to add the pasta I also added some frozen green peas and about 1/4 cup fresh minced parsley.Along with the spices ,I added a pinch of sugar,salt, Accent, and Emeril's Essence. Avery yummy soup that I will make again. IMO, Taste of Home always has the best recipes!

My family loved it. I think it would be perfect if cheese-filled tortellini were substituted for the spiral pasta, and maybe some italian green beans were thrown in for good measure. I made it with cooked chicken instead of raw (I added it with the broth) and it turned out great.
