Chicken Noodle Soup

When you want a soup but are fed up with the usual canned flavours.  Then you need to try Chicken Noodle Soup. The flavours will knock your socks off. The body of this soup is amazing with the soft egg noodles and five different vegetables. These ingredients combine with the spices to create a Chicken Noodle Soup that will satisfy even the hungriest of appetites. This dish resembles more of a full bodied stew than a soup. I normally serve this with just a loaf of home made Fresh Bread.  This works superbly to mop up the last of the soup an make the bowl look washed already.
