I have had my littlest kiddo home from school sick this week. The stomach flu, YUCK! I mistakenly told someone that my kiddos had been unusually healthy this winter. I totally jinxed myself. Trying to find something that sounded good to my little one and that everyone else would enjoy for dinner was challenging. Chicken Soup! She sipped the broth and ate some of the noodles. There were enough leftovers to feed her for lunch the last couple days. Today she had been up and around and everything has stayed down. Hallelujah! And she announce a few minutes ago that she was bored. That's always a good sign that we're ready to go back to school.
Has your family stayed healthy this winter?
Quick and Easy Chicken Noodle Soup
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup finely diced Onion
2 Garlic cloves, minced
2 ribs Celery, sliced thin
2 Chicken Breasts, sliced into thin strips
1 teaspoon Seasoning Salt
64 ounces Chicken Stock
2 cups Carrots sliced thin
1/2 pound Extra Wide Egg Noodles
(prep time 10 minutes, cook time 20 minutes, serves 6-8)
