great ideas for amazing soup. I used all natural chicken broth only no beef bouillon, no noodle soup mix. I used whole wheat egg noodles and added diced red potato and garlic. I always cook my noodles seperately then add at the last minute as they will soak up the good broth. Mmmmm! Gave it 4 stars just cuz I made it my own. Make it yours!

I am a complete novice. I've never made soup in my life. I don't enjoy cooking..however, I wanted to try this recipe for a very sick friend. Well, the soup turned out fantastic! Easy and great! The best I've ever had! I tweeked it as other reviewers said to do, I added the Leek soup mix, (awesome)and corn. The longer you simmer it the more tasty it gets..SO excellent! My friend was amazed and my family had a really great meal as well. The recipe does not say how much water to add at the beginning, but I just made sure the chicken was immersed when boiling it. I did not cover it, ever, so the water evaporated and it worked out perfectly! Bon appetit!

Excellent! Used what I had on hand (daughter and grandson both have colds with fevers). I used 4 chicken leg quarters, added some mixed veggies--didn't have any pasta so I threw in the macaroni from a boxed mac & cheese. Also used chicken soup base since I didn't have the chicken soup mix.

Delicious! I increased this recipe and used 2 whole chickens and 4 gallons of water. Don't overcook the bowtie pasta as it will swell and get a bit mushy. Used a bit more of the spices. Great soup!

I made this for my family that was visiting from Fla. Being that is was cold here I thought this would be a good idea never done homemade before. This was a really great recipe with a few changes. I put it all in the crockpot and cooked it all day long,didn't use the soup mix(didn't need it)I used chicken breasts instead of whole chicken(less grease)No noodles.Added more celery less carrots. It was sooo good.

Today I woke up with a cold and the urge to cook something from scratch so what better to make than chicken soup - except I'm not a fan chicken noodle soup. Considering that my only experience with chicken noodle soup was from a can, I decided to throw caution to the wind and make this soup. Coming from someone who doesn't like celery or cooked onions, this soup is quite good. The vegetables cooked up nice and soft so they're a non-issue, and combined with the pasta and the chicken, the soup is quite satisfying. If I had it to do again, I think I would use dark meat chicken only as it's wonderfully moist. Oh! And after having a bowl of this soup, my cold feels much better!

I'm a huge soup lover but this was my first experience making homemade chicken soup. It won't be my last this was perfect! Everyone in my family was sick with a bad cold. So, despite being August and 90 degrees outside I decided a batch of chicken soup is just what we needed! This was also my first try at boiling a whole chicken I boiled mine on low for nearly two hours and it was so yummy! The meat was literally falling off the bone. I also boiled my chicken with a few stalks of celery and an onion. I then used my homemade chicken stock instead of using canned broth. It was delicious! I also added garlic, a chopped onion and a package of cream of spinach. Added a bit of color and nutrients. It was wonderful! Just what we needed. Even my picky three year old enjoyed it. It made enough to feed an army. We ate leftovers for 3 days! I will definitely make this again. Next time I might use egg noodles instead of the bow tie. There were a little large and hard for my kids to spoon. Otherwise perfect!!

Pretty Good bowl of soup. I thought the recipe was really good and I make alot of soups. I put much more of the spices than called for, as I thought it would be pretty bland without. I also used little shells instead of bowties. All in all it was a winner. Only 4 stars because of spices. Thanks Carrie for posting it!

This soup is awesome. It was my first time to ever use a whole chicken, and I went for a 5.5 pounder and doubled the recipe as I was making it for a few sick friends. I was hesitant to use so much water at the beginning because it just seemed like a TON of broth. In the end, though, it was not as liquidy as I would have liked, and I ended up adding about 6 extra cups of water. I did have to add a LOT more of every spice, or I believe this would have ended up pretty bland. I also did not use the 2 cans of chicken broth since it seemed like so much liquid at that point. Then I was able to add some salt for flavor and not worry too much about sodium content!

I was very excited to try making this homemade soup because of the recipes, but I have to say that I found this recipe bland beyond belief. I followed everything to a "t", but was not impressed with the finished product.

I made this recipe with boneless chicken breasts, omitted the soup mix, and exchanged the farfalle for long-grain white rice. Very easy and very very good!

This was super! I did put 2 small diced potatoes in it. WE LOVE POTATOES.. So the potatoes didn't take away from the soup at all. Have made this several times, But we are SOUP lovers....

This soup was excellent! It had a lot of flavor and I only changed a few things: used chicken breasts with bones instead of the whole chicken, used chicken bouillon instead of beef and whole wheat noodles instead of regular farfalle.

I think this is a good recipe other than the fact that the “chicken noodle soup packet” doesn’t give me much of clue as to what exactly the recipe is calling for.
