Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

This is soooooo much better than the canned stuff and makes the entire house smell great!  It tastes delicious straight from the stove and even better the next day.

 

You will end up with leftovers.  For food storage, if you haven't already made the switch from plastic to glass containers, I cannot recommend it enough.  No more stains.  No more mystery white crusty stuff or warping.  I LOVE these Pyrex glass storage containers!

Chicken Noodle Soup (adapted from Corwynn's recipe) Printable Recipe

makes 12 servings

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups egg noodles

1 teaspoon vegetable oil

2 (49 oz.) cans of chicken broth
1 teaspoon of poultry seasoning
1 cup each - celery, onion and carrots (chopped)
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup water
3 cups chicken (chopped) - cooked with whatever seasonings you fancy

Directions:

1) Add oil and a little salt to a large pot of water.  Bring to a boil and then add noodles, cooking for 8 minutes.  Drain and set aside.

2) In a large pot, add broth and poultry seasoning.  Bring to a boil and then stir in the celery, onion and carrots.  Reduce heat and cover, letting the mixture simmer for 15 minutes.

3) In a small cup, mix cornstarch and water together, stirring until completely dissolved.  Gradually add to the soup mixture, stirring constantly, until well mixed. 

4) Stir in chicken and noodles and let continue to simmer for 15 minutes, before serving.

*If two cans of regular chicken broth seem too salty for you, 
use one regular and one low-sodium.*

B.L.T. Extreme

 

 I've been craving a BLT Extreme A.K.A. BELT (that's bacon, EGG over easy, lettuce & tomato) for a few weeks now, and decided to make one for dinner tonight.  Let me tell you, it was a-m-a-z-i-n-g.  I had two (no judging).

BLT Extreme Printable Recipe

makes 1 sandwich

Ingredients:

2 slices whole wheat bread

3-4 slices of thick bacon

2 leaves of green leaf lettuce

1 tablespoon of mayo

4 tomato slices

1 egg

Directions:

1) Toast the two slices of bread to your preference. Set aside.

2) Cook bacon in a pan over medium heat, until crisp.  Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.

3) Spread your mayo over one of the pieces of bread.  Lay the lettuce, tomato, and bacon over top the bread.

4) Pour a  bit of oil into a small pan and cook the egg over medium heat, flipping it once the bottom is set.  Remove from heat once the other side sets and slide the egg onto the bacon, lettuce and tomato. 

5) Top with the remaining slice of bread and enjoy your gooey egg/bacon deliciousness.
