Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

Looking for a way to use leftovers?  Make your own homemade chicken noodle soup. This is an easy recipe to use left over baked chicken or rotisserie chicken.

Make sure to slice the veggies thinly so they will cook quickly and evenly.  We put in 1-2 cups of chicken, depending on how much we have to use.

The recipe is going to look like it has to much liquid in it when you add the noodles.  Once they noodles expand, the liquid will decrease.  You will then have a hearty chicken noodle soup.

Make extras to freeze so you meals to heat up when you are busy.

If you don’t have fresh veggies, you can use a bag of frozen veggies instead to make this as well.  Use what you have on hand.
