Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup
Chicken Noodle Soup. Is there anything better on this planet than a nice warm bowl when the weather turns cold and possibly rainy outside? I’d like to think not. Luckily (or maybe not) for me, after I made a batch of this soup, I started to develop a bit of a cold so over the course of the weekend, I ate the entire batch, one bowl at a time. I even started to get creative and poached a duck egg in the broth while I heated it up and let me tell you, that really amped it up another notch. This soup was so tasty, I can’t wait got get another stewing hen to make it again.
