Description

This comforting crockpot chicken noodle soup is made with egg noodles, chicken, and vegetables in a flavorful broth. It’s an easy to make, one-pot meal that’s hearty enough to make a meal of, especially if you serve it with some crusty bread. The best part is that you can make it ahead of time and let it slow cook while you’re at work or out and about, so it’s ready to eat when you get home.

Prep Time

This meal takes about 20 minutes of prep time. This includes washing and chopping the vegetables, shredding the chicken, and prepping the egg noodles.

Recipe Tips

Use cooked and shredded rotisserie chicken for a shortcut.
You can also use frozen vegetables if you don’t have fresh on hand.
For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
You can use any type of noodles you like – egg noodles, spaghetti, macaroni, etc.
You can also add more vegetables if you like – green beans, peas, mushrooms, etc.
For a creamier soup, stir in some cream or half and half before serving.
This soup is also great with a dollop of pesto stirred in before serving.
