Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup







I like to make this soup whenever we have roast chicken, I use the leftover chicken carcass to make the stock I use in the soup. For the best flavor/texture use homemade noodles. The recipes for the stock and noodles will be posted also. 


Ingredients:


1 cup or so (I don't measure) diced or shredded cooked chicken (I prefer shredded)
  *use chicken from a roast chicken breast or use the recipe for poached chicken breasts found in this blog. You can use canned chicken, but I don't recommend it.


2 large cans of chicken broth OR homemade stock from roast chicken along with 4-6 cups of homemade chicken broth. 


1 medium onion, diced
2 carrots diced
2 celery stalks diced or chopped


Assorted seasonings, sorry I do not measure, I simply pour! 


salt, pepper, thyme, poultry seasoning, garlic powder


Place all the above ingredients into your crock pot and cook on low 8 hours. Transfer the soup once done to a large sauce pan and bring to a boil, add homemade noodles and cook till tender (5-10 minutes)  


Serve with rolls or homemade bread.
