"If you prefer, this recipe can be done on the stove but I recommend cutting the spices in half. In crock pot cooking, dried spices loose some of their kick. This is a great recipe for leftover chicken."

Great soup on a cold night! My husband and I enjoyed this tasty soup. I had leftover crock pot chicken so this recipe was perfect! Didn't add the potatoes added a pinch of seasonings because chicken was cooked with similar seasonings. And only added 1/2 cup evaporated milk, that's what I had on hand. Just threw the egg noodles in with the milk, turned out great. Thanks for a tasty soup!

I am a mother of three and live in central Pennsylvania. My children were very active in after school activities and found we weren't spending anytime together at meal time. In 1998, I decided to start cooking my dinners in a crockpot so that we could have a home cooked meal together once everyone came home. My children now get so excited to see what we are having to eat and love the smell when they walk in the door. My family calls me the crock pot queen. LOL I use my crock pot everyday of the year. My three children are now in college and before they come home they request their favorite meal. I still continue to cook in the crock pot for my husband and I. It is nice after a long day to know your meal is ready. It also helps in keeping my grocery bill down. With zaar, I can print my shopping list and that is all I purchase is the ingredients on that list. Now, my two daughters have been crock pot cooking while in college. They find it is easy to cook for the themselves and their friends. It is an easy way to have friends over for dinner after classes I still love trying new recipes and purchasing cookbooks, especially crock pot cookbooks. Happy Cooking!
