Equipment

  • dutch oven
  • Stove

Ingredients
  

  • 2 T butter
  • 4 carrots, peeled/chopped
  • 4 stalks celery, chopped
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 4 C rotisserie chicken, bite sized pieces feel free to add as much or little as desired here.
  • 4 t Better than Bouillon - Chicken flavor I varied the usual 1 t for each cup of water here and added chicken broth.
  • 4 C chicken broth optional, you can switch out water for broth here and just adjust 1 t of bouillon for each C of water added.
  • 2 C water
  • 1-2 C egg noodles you choose amount here
  • Fresh parsley garnish
  • salt and pepper, as desired

Instructions
 

  • Chop veggies.
  • Cut rotisserie chicken into bite sized pieces. I used 4 C.
  • Add 2 T butter to a Dutch oven and add the veggies. Saute' until softened.
  • Add chicken, chicken broth and/or just water and adjust Bouillon to 1 t per liquid. Adjust bouillon if adding chicken broth. See note below.
  • Cook for 30 minutes and then add desired amount of egg noodles...1 to 11/2 C, depending on how much broth to noodle ratio you prefer. I added 2 C and I thought it needed reducing...feel free to add as much as you like!
  • Cook an additional 10-15 minutes until egg noodles are cooked.
  • Don't forget to serve with fresh parsley. It makes it even better!

Notes

What a wonderful version of a healthy chicken noodle soup that is fast and delicious! Great for a quick and delicious meal. Especially if you are soup lover like we are.
TIP: feel free to only use water with 1 t of bouillon to each C of water if you'd prefer instead of chicken broth.
***I accidentally added the chicken broth in when I created this version and loved it so much, I left it in for repeat cooking! But, because I added the chicken broth in and was concerned about too much "chicken flavor" and the need for more liquid, I added an additional 2 C water. We loved it!
 
If you are on Weight Watchers... 2 C is 6 points for those on green!!
