I loved this! I used 2 cans cream chicken soup and one of cream of mushroom. I added to cans of chicken broth and threw in a couple of bulion cubes. I added a can and 1/2 of carrots. I poured a whole bag of egg noodles in it when it was close to being done. Great recipe that will travel to work with us for a few days. Even my picky 4 year old loved it!!

This is a great recipe and should be called "Simply Chicken Noodle". It's simple to make and is simply chicken and noodles. It's so easy my kids made it today. We have made this recipe countless times and it's a great stand in for a can of chicken noodle soup - and much tastier. It works well with any add-ins you like. I generally don't add anything (well, sometimes I sprinkle a bit of parsley in it) but I use linguine or angel hair pasta broken into 1" pieces instead of egg noodles. Great soup!

This is THE BEST chicken noodle soup without going through the tedious task of making it the traditional style with a whole chicken etc. This is 10x easier and tastes just the same, in my opinion. I did add celery and carrots, and used thin egg noodles. It is the number one go to dish I make for myself on a cold day or for my loved ones when they are sick.

I thought this soup was pretty good. I did add the celery and carrots along with some diced garlic, and pepper. I also added a little bit more water then what was called for (since I like more broth), and had to add more bouillon cubes to get the flavor I wanted. Overall, it was a great soup! I will definitely make this many more times in the future!

I made this pretty much as written. I used breasts for the chicken meat. I don't know much about egg noodles, and couldn't find "thin" ones, but I used some "medium egg noodles" and they looked thin enough to me. I boiled the chicken for 20 minutes before cutting it up, and the noodles were boiled for 7 minutes. Like many other reviewers, of course it seems logical to me to add celery and carrots to the soup, but just rating this as is, it was a very good soup. A decent amount of the liquid boiled down, so the results weren't watery, the broth flavor was prominent but not too strong, and the ratio of chicken to noodles was just fine, in my opinion. It may be a great base soup, but it's great as is, too. I've already made this twice.

This is a good base recipe. It turned out very tastey and the chicken tender. I added 1/2 cup chopped onion and 1 cup each sliced carrots and celery. I also added 1/2 tsp. each basil and oregano and 1/4 tsp. ground black pepper. I added all of this along with the chicken, covered and simmered for 15 minutes, then I added the noddles. I also eliminated a step by cutting up the chicken while raw, instead of waiting until it is cooked. The great thing about this recipe is that you can add whatever vegetables and seasonings you like. Have fun!

I used many of the recommendations of other reviewers including adding a whole onion that I took out after cooking. I also used the 2 cans of cream of chicken soup to add to the overall 8 cups of liquid. For vegetables, I added fresh carrots, celery and spinach. Very good recipe and simple too! My husband said it's the best soup he's ever had!

This was a hit! My family doesn't care much for soups, but with the advice of other reviews it was heartier than most soups. I added celery and carrots, and used more chicken. Good soup!

This was delicious! I also added a few things. Sliced carrots, 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1 can cream of mushroom soup. I used 3 cups of noodles and it made for a heartier soup. Thanks

I really liked this recipe. I did change a couple things from reading previous reviews, though - I added a bit of garlic powder, boiled an onion in it, and cut the chicken into cubes *before* putting it in the pot. Once I made it with a can of cream of chicken, and once without - honestly, I didn't taste enough of a difference to make me bother doing the cream of chicken thing again. I did add vegetables. There wasn't much broth by the time it was done cooking - but I like that. I don't like my soup to be very watery. My boyfriend loved it, too!

I made this tonight for my family - it is cold and rainy here in KS today. This was a GREAT recipe - here are my additions based on other reviews: I sauteed onions, carrots and celery in a little Olive Oil at the bottom of my pot, then added chicken, water, and boullion (11 cups water, 8 boullion cubes for 8 servings), let it cook awhile and added 2 cans cream of chicken soup and a 1 lb. box of Orzo - FANTASTIC. Thanks so much for the great recipe - I have been looking for a good chicken noodle soup recipe, and this one is a keeper!!

IT WAS SO EASY!! and fast, I loved it but added my own touch. I selected the serving for 7, I added about 2 cups more noodles and I just used canned carrots. I added italian seasonings, and garlic. It needed more bouillon, about one per cup of water... then just add rolls and it was the best meal for the first unexpected snow fall in early Oct :)
