Chicken noodle soup is outstanding American comfort food. We eat it when we’re sick when it’s stormy outside, or just when we need a pick-me-up!
A super easy, super delicious soup that the whole family will love! It’s filled with tender chicken, fresh veggies, hearty pasta, and herbs and lemon for flavor. An excellent comforting soup for cold winter days or those dreadful sick days.
The considerable thing about this soup is that once you have diced your vegetables you just throw everything into the slow cooker and walk away. There is no need to fry the vegetables beforehand.
