Gluten-Free Chicken Noodle Soup

Hey everyone!!

    Welcome to cold weather! There's nothing better than a hot bowl of soup on a cold and dreary day, and we have the perfect recipe! Not only is this soup tasty, but it's also healthy! It has the perfect combination of carbs, proteins, fats and veggies! It's also a very inexpensive meal if you're eating on a budget.
     This recipe makes six large servings, so it's perfect for families. Is it just you over there? Not to worry! It freezes really well and warms up perfectly on the nights you're in too much of a hurry to cook anything! It was a life saver in our house when sickness struck! :)

Let's get started!
There is a printable recipe card for this soup at the bottom of the page!

Here's what you need!

 To really get the full flavor of this recipe, you need to use a whole chicken. We cook ours in a crock pot. Put it in before bed with 4 cups of water, salt and pepper. In the morning, you're ready to go. We separate the chicken and divide it into three portions to be used for three meals. Use all the broth from the crock pot for this recipe.

First, we put one of the divided portions of chicken (about 2 cups) and the broth into a large pan or stock pot and bring to a boil. We add another 4-6 cups of broth to the pot. The boxed broth is convenient or you can use the remains (that sounds creepy) of your chicken and your crockpot  to make your own!!  

Then we peeled and sliced 6 large carrots and added to the pan, and bring the soup back to a boil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
 



We used Tinkyada Brown Rice Fettuccine noodles which makes this a gluten free recipe! Brown rice pasta is a great alternative to whole wheat pasta and Tinkyada makes the best we've tried. Break the pasta into noodle-sized pieces and add to the pot.

Cook for the required time for the pasta and you're done!

There you have it! This recipe could not be any more simple! We really hope you enjoy it. If you decide to give it a try, let us know what you thought!
