with real, homemade noodles.
Dude…
The problem with this soup is that no matter how big your pan is—you can never quite make enough. I swear I could eat a big bowl of this soup every autumn day of my life–and deep into winter. Hmmmm…so simple and perfect. No creepy ingredients to scare the kids. Just good ol’ grama’s kitchen-type stuff–like the farm hands eat.
Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
2 1/2 lbs. boneless chicken breasts, cut up
1 qt. water
4 carrots, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 Tbsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2/3 cup rice (uncooked)
3 chicken bouillon cubes
2 chicken gravy packets
1 cup milk
2 c. uncooked noodles
Heat chicken, water, rice, spices and bouillon to boiling in a 4 quart pan; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 30-45 minutes–or until carrots and rice are tender. If your liquid boils down too much, just add more a cup or so at a time. Mix the gravy packets and milk together in a measuring cup until smooth. While stirring, add gravy to soup mixture, slowly. Bring to gentle boil again. Drop uncooked noodles into soup and boil about 4-5 minutes or until the noodles float to the top. Cool a bit before serving. Serves 8…
unless you invite…
me over.
Homemade Egg Noodles
2 c. all-purpose flour
3 egg yolks
1 egg
2 tsp. salt
1/4 to 1/2 c. water
Measure flour into bowl; make a well in center and add egg yolks, whole egg and salt. With hands thoroughly mix egg into flour. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. (Add only enough water to form dough into a ball.)
Turn dough onto well floured cloth covered board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Cover. Let rest 10 minutes. Divide dough into 4 equal parts. Roll dough one part at a time. Cut dough crosswise into 1/8 inch strips with a pizza cutter. Use fresh or allow to dry.

I LOVE Chicken Noodle Soup. Brick Oven has a delicious one and this looks really close to it.
Did you guys make that without me? 🙁
Oh, looks so good. I love healthy little things like this, and you’re right..there is NEVER ENOUGH! 🙂 It was fun to see you guys the other day, hopefully we can see eachother soon again! 🙂
My grama used to make this one. It’s incredible.
You are too funny. Of course not…
:]
We use the biggest pan we own…and still there is absolute howling when it’s gone.
We need a party or something…you should come to Eclipse with us.
:]
yUUUm!!! We should just make this like every other day! 😉 I’m surprised you didn’t have this recipe on here any sooner!!! Way to remedy that!
I’m glad you didn’t have this recipe on here sooner cuz I would have missed it. I am so excited to make homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade noodles! I’ve never done this before…wish me luck!
I was waiting for a decent picture of the noodles. We make it at night and the pictures turn out gross. Finally got this one.
:]
You definitely need to check out the Recipe tab. You might even faint.
Some mighty cool stuff in there…
You can totally do this and it’s sooo worth it.
Aaaah! I finally tried making it today…and let’s just say I need Chicken Soup for Dummies! I didn’t realize I was burning the soup until I smelled it. It didn’t look burned, but it tasted horrible. So waffles for dinner to cheer me up!
Wowww. I’m so sorry. I suppose it needs to be said that if your broth boils away–add more water.
So sorry.
😕
Making this tonight!
@Jillian, Can this be put in a recipe format sometime? I want to print it off for my collection 🙂
