Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup plus McDonald's Coke equals Halloween in London. We were oh so festive this year. No pumpkins, no costumes, no one came to trick or treat at our house, no decorations, nothing! I guess Halloween isn't very popular here in London. We did have some very delicious Chicken Noodle Soup that we made and we watched Hocus Pocus! HaHa!! Don't worry last night we watched The Witches! So funny! I don't think I've seen either of those since I was little! We had a fun Halloween! What did you do for Halloween?
(Here is the delicious recipe if you want to make it)
CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken
1 bay leaf
1 Tb. Knorr chicken stock
1-2 stalks celery, cut in thirds
1 onion, quartered
1 carrot, peeled and cut in half
Salt and pepper as desired
1 bag wide egg noodles (found in the freezer section)
Carrots, onions, celery, potatoes, (peeled and chopped)
(However many you want of these. These are for later that go in the actual soup.)
Directions:
Place chicken in large pot and cover with water. Add bay leaf, onion, carrot and chicken stock. Boil at least an hour or until meat separates easily from bone. I usually do this one night, put whole thing in refrigerator and clean chicken the next day.
Remove chicken from pot. Skim fat from stock in pot. Discard onion, celery and carrot. Remove all bones from chicken and cut meat into bite-sized pieces. Set meat aside. Bring stock in pot to a boil again, then add potatoes, onions, celery and carrots, as many as you want. Taste broth. If too watery, add more chicken stock. Boil until vegetables are still firm, al dente, then add chicken and noodles. Boil another 12-15 minutes or until noodles are done.
