Vegetable & Chicken Noodle Soup ...

The hardest time here in Michigan is when we are transitioning from one season to another. Some one forgot to tell the weatherman it was Spring here. This is a nice soup you can have on any given day of the week. My day, just happen to be on a chilly-warm Monday. Any one living in or on the outskirts of Michigan, know all to well what those days are like.

Growing up, chicken and noodle soup was one of my favorites soups that just happen to come out of a can. Yes, Cambell's Soup was our soup of choice. Back then it had tiny bits of carrots in it. The many flavors were, chicken & noodle, chicken & stars or chicken and rice ...  Here's a savory & hearty soup that will help you to get through the chilly time of the day. Fresh and homemade always win over the canned soup in my house. Here's why ...


Prep Time: 2 1/2hrs - 3hrs

1/2 chicken cut into pieces or 3-4 chicken breast
4 boiled eggs 
1/2 green pepper diced
1/2 onion diced
1 16oz  box of chicken stock
1/2 package of egg noodles  
2c of frozen mixed vegetable
Mrs Dash lemon pepper season

Boil chicken, onions and green pepper in chicken stock until chicken falls from the bone or breast are tender, about 2 1/2hrs (you can also cook chicken in a crock pot). In separate pot boil up the eggs and set aside. Remove bones from chicken and cut chicken into bite size pieces, place back into the pot. Add noodles and frozen vegetables to the pot and simmer until the noodles are tender. Chop boiled eggs and mix into the pot. Bowl up and sprinkle on the Mrs Dash Lemon Pepper or the seasonings of your choice and ENJOY! ..
