Comfort food: chicken noodle soup

Big Guy made me chicken noodle soup several years ago when I was feeling under the weather. There is something so special about this soup. It is comforting, filling, and makes you feel right as rain.

As the years went by, I was determined to make my version of his soup. Instead of boiling the chicken, I decided to bake it first so I could get a rich color on the meat. It seems since I made this one change, Big Guy is quite happy to let me make the soup.

Thank goodness Fall is here so I could make another batch of this favorite in the Carondelet Kitchen. I opted to add extra noodles to make it extra “healthy!”
