Nothing combats a gloomy and sick day quite like chicken noodle soup. When I woke up this morning with a scratchy sore throat, I knew I had to make chicken noodle soup. It's a classic home remedy and "good for the soul."
I started with two large pots on the stove. I cooked carrots, celery and onion in my cast-iron pot and boiled the chicken breasts in water and chicken broth to make the stock in the other. The ingredients were ready nearly simultaneously. I cut the chicken into small chunks and dumped the stock into the cast-iron pot with vegetables. I added the noodles and let everything cook together for 10 minutes. I added the parsley and it was ready to eat.
It was very hearty and extremely satisfying considering the cold symptoms. I love chicken noodle soup!
Ingredients:
3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
24 ounces chicken broth
3 cups water
5 stalks celery
14 ounces carrots
1 onion
1/2 cup Italian parsley
12 ounces whole wheat blend noodles (wide noodle style, like egg noodles)

Garlic and basil seasoning to taste
