This is the first chicken noodle soup that I have ever made. It turned out really good. I added a little more veggies than called for. I also added 2 chicken bouillon cubes for a little more flavor. Thanks for posting such a great & easy recipe!

We made this last night~cooked the chicken breasts whole, then removed to cut up while boiling the noodles in the broth. Easy recipe--will use again!!

This is a nice basic chicken noodle soup that one can make in about half an hour! I forgot to add the parsley at the end, and the soup was lacking in flavor, in my opinion. I will experiment in the future to find a way to add more flavor. I'm betting that made-from-scratch stock would give it that extra punch!

Made it last weekend and was quite delicious my mother in law who is very picky loved it. I also added about 1/4 cup of diced tomatoes in it as well .
