Patty’s Chicken Noodle Soup

My children always wanted my chicken noodle soup when they were feeling run down from catching a cold. Actually, experts have found that chicken noodle soup may ease cold symptoms and I believe it too! Chicken noodle soup is also packed with nutrients and increases hydration.

  • 4 quarts of water
  • 4 cups of onions chopped
  • 2 cups celery ribs chopped
  • 2 cans of Campbell’s Cream of Chicken Soup
