Spring is just around the corner! I know that because my husband and I have been passing a
cold back and forth recently. We were both feeling a little under the weather last week, so I
went to the kitchen to concoct a quick, easy, and delicious soup. It turned out even better
than I expected, and it was just what we needed to warm up!
30 Minute Chicken Noodle Soup
Ingredients
Soup:
Water
4 Tablespoons Vegetarian Chicken Bouillon
2 Cups Diced Chicken
½ Cup Carrot Dices
½ Cup Celery
1 Cup Sweet Corn
Juice from 1 lemon
2 Cups Potato Dices
Noodles:
2 Large Eggs
½ Teaspoon Salt
2 Tablespoons Milk
1 1/2-2 Cups flour
Directions
Put 12 cups water, vegetarian chicken bouillon, chicken, carrots, celery, sweet corn, lemon juice in a large pot and put it on the stove on a high heat setting.
Once your soup has been boiling for about 10 minutes, in a separate bowl combine potato dices and 8 cups boiling water. Let the potatoes sit for 3-5 minutes, drain, then add the potatoes to the broth that has been boiling on the stove.
Now we will get started on the noodles! In a medium sized bowl combine milk, eggs, salt together and mix until smooth. Add one cup flour and mix again. At this point you will add 1 spoonful of flour at a time until you are able to form a ball with the dough. Next you will knead the dough with your hands for about 3-5 minutes. Move the dough ball to a floured surface and let it rest for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes have passed, roll out your dough until it is about ¼ inch in thickness and then let it sit for an additional 5 minutes. (This makes it so that your noodles don’t shrink when they are being cut.) Now you will want to use a knife or a pizza cutter to cut your noodles into long strips. Just remember that the noodles will increase in width when they’re added to the boiling water! (When I was first learning to cook, I made a batch that were monster sized… That was definitely a mistake I did not make twice!)
After you have cut your noodles, add them to the pot and let the mixture boil for another 2-3 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
The beauty of Thrive is that you can throw this soup together last second, but it tastes as if
hours were spent crafting this satisfying meal. My favorite part about this recipe is that the
potatoes act as a natural thickener, and the lemon heightens the chicken flavor without adding any acidic flavor! Next time you need a quick dinner, give this a try! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
