Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

Here's an easy recipe when you need quick and comforting meal--my go-to recipe when one of my loved ones gets sick.

6-8 cups water
3 cubes chicken bouillon
2 cups celery, chopped
1 medium carrot, peeled and sliced
1 cup onion, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup frozen peas
6 oz Amish Extra Thick Kluski Egg Noodles

In a medium saucepan combine chicken and water and bring to a boil. Add bouillon cubes, celery, carrots, onion. Sprinkle with salt, pepper. Cook on medium heat for 20-25 minutes until meat is cooked through. Remove chicken from broth and set aside to cool. Add frozen peas and return to a boil. Add noodles and cook as directed on package, approximately 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, shred chicken into bite-size pieces. Add to soup when noodles are tender. Cook another 5 minutes. Serve immediately with saltine crackers. Serves 4-6.
