Last week I shared my tasty Tomato Basil soup with you, and today I'm sharing another one of my favorite soups for a brisk cool day. **Fellow southerners, let's just pretend that we're having a brisk fall day, and hope that one is on the horizon, OK? Today's soup of the day is....
Don't for a minute think that chicken noodle is just a soup for when you're under the weather. No, it's the perfect comfort food for anytime! In fact, this version comes together so quickly, you could make it tonight! Here's what you need: 2 Tablespoons of butter, 1/2 cup of onion, 1/2 cup of celery, 1/2 cup of chopped carrots, one carton of chicken broth, 1 rotisserie chicken (shredded), 1 box of noodles (I use Dreamfields), 1 teaspoon of thyme, and salt and pepper to taste.
In a large soup pot, melt 2 Tablespoons of butter, then saute the onions and celery until tender. Pour in shredded chicken, chicken broth, noodles, carrots, and seasonings. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer 30 minutes until the carrots are tender.
Let's talk pasta, real quick. I use Dreamfields because it is advertised as low carb, although it is a little controversial in the low carb world (you can research that yourself). I have found that it holds up better in soup than traditional pasta that tends to disintegrate after soaking up too much liquid. If you have never used Dreamfields, definitely give it a try. In the end, feel free to use egg noodles, or whatever pasta you prefer. The important part is that you make it!
Enjoy!!

DeleteThis sounds so yummy! I was never a fan of chicken noodle soup growing up just because it reminded me of being sick, but now that I'm older I love a good homemade version. This sounds really good and really easy!
ReplyDeleteMe too! I think the only chicken noodle soup I had ever had before I made this was canned soup. This doesn't taste like that at all!! It's very hearty.

ReplyDeleteYum yum! I've never been a fan of noodles in soup so I'll slide those out and enjoy the chicken and veggies! One day it will be cool enough for soup again! We're back to being a little summery here too 85/86 degrees this week. xoxox
ReplyDeleteThis looks sooo good. I don't like cold weather but the only thing good about it is soup. I love it and this looks positively delish. Have a great weekend.
