Instructions

  3. Add the frozen mixed vegetables or drained canned carrots.

notes & tips
  • Cream of mushroom works too in place of cream of chicken for a different flavor.
  • Add more chicken: Stir in a drained can of canned chicken for extra protein.
  • Any vegetables work. Corn, peas, green beans — whatever you have.
  • With bread or crackers. This soup begs to be dipped into.
  • Leftovers: Keeps well for 2 days. The noodles will absorb liquid, so add a splash of water when reheating.
