Tips for best results

• If the soup is too thick, add additional chicken broth.
• Make sure you use uncooked noodles so they don’t end up overdone.

Substitutions and variations

• Add ingredients to a slow cooker if you prefer. Use a small saucepan to sauté veggies first then toss it all into your slow cooker. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or until chicken is cooked through. Wait until the last 10 minutes to add the egg noodles.
• If you prefer, you can leave the corn out and have traditional chicken noodle soup.
• For thicker, creamier chicken noodle soup, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with water or chicken broth, and then add it to your soup.
• If you’re looking for a bigger pop of flavor in your soup, try adding a dash more salt, poultry seasoning, some Worcestershire sauce, or soy sauce.
• For even more delicious soup, make your own homemade noodles.
• Substitute rotisserie chicken for even more flavor.
• Use sweet corn or regular corn, whichever you prefer.
