Everyone has fond memories of chicken noodle soup. Its the number one request I receive when people around me are falling ill. Its warm, soothing and comforting. It has a long standing history as a cure-all.

Chicken noodle soup seems to be one of those dishes that everyone has a story for, they know who makes the best or swear by this or that recipe. People get rather intense about their generational recipes. Anytime you even read anything about noodle soup the word “grandmother” is not far behind. Well for everyone looking for the grandma standard. This quick and simple version would make any grandmother proud and the canned soup eater change their preferences.

If you want to shortcut this recipe? Here are some tips!
