Homemade chicken noodle soup
One whole fryer cooked in 2 quarts water (I find it easier to use a whole chicken cut up or chicken pieces already cut up. Can be cooked in the crockpot if needs to be prepared ahead. When cooked, remove all chicken pieces from broth and remove skins and debone and chop into bite-size pieces)
Add the following items to the broth: Chopped onion, Parsley, ball leaves, garlic, sliced carrots, chopped celery, sage, salt, pepper, cut up potatoes, chicken broth or chicken bullion
when all items are cooked add homemade egg noodles and cook till they are soft. Can also add optional frozen peas.
