Chicken Noodle Soup in the Slow Cooker

Isn't it the worst when one day, all of the sudden, out of no where, your throat starts hurting like mad… and then it continues to burn for like 3 days straight until you start losing your voice.

Yeah, I hate colds and sore throats and this last one has been a killer (but lets not whine about it because life goes on, right).

I think I'm finally getting to the end of it though. Don't you just wish you were sitting next to me right now :)?

What are the first things on the menu on sick days? Fruit smoothies, Ricolla cough drops, ice water, more ice water, chocolate (because chocolate is the cure for everything) and of course chicken noodle soup.

Isn't it just one of those things that you always remember having growing up when you were sick (and Sprite; recently I was told by my kids' Pediatrician that Sprite can make things worse – oops. But it tastes so good when your sick.)

Chicken Noodle Soup in Slow Cooker

Perfect Soup for a Sick Day

Even though I wasn't feeling great, I knew I needed chicken noodle soup so I decided to make a simple version (the most labor intensive part is veggie chopping and could we really even label that as labor intensive or more stress relieving?).

This soup is a classic and even hearty chicken noodle soup that takes minimal effort yet yields tender chicken, soft veggies and delicious results. This recipe is one you'll want to have handy for cold winter days, the not feeling so fabulous days, the hectic days and of course any day you just want an easy and satisfying meal.

Just be warned, once you make homemade chicken noodle soup, you'll never buy it canned again.

One of my favorite sides to serve with this is warm from the oven, homemade white bread with whipped butter for a complete homestyle meal. Enjoy!
