Best Chicken Noodle Soup....ever.

This soup deserves a second post.
It smells divine cooking in the slow cooker.
I can hardly wait to eat it when I know it's cooking.
All of the men in my family love it...well, those with teeth. ;)

It's perfect. Accompanied by some homemade bread (from my bread maker ;), it's just the cherry on top of the whole day.

Enjoy! (see the original post, here)

"This is a Pinterest recipe - I cannot take credit for it. I will just share my new-found love for it.

You can find the recipe here.

A Few Notes:

  • I omitted the white wine and just used an extra cup of chicken broth.
  • I also only used 5 chicken thighs and found it to be PLENTY of chicken.
  • I cooked the chicken for only 7 hours and found it to be perfectly tender. The smell was too tempting to wait another hour to eat, so I was ecstatic to find it done at 7 hours. ;)
  • I would add more than 2 cups of noodles the next time, possibly 2 1/2 - 3.  2 cups didn't seem to be enough with the abundance of chicken.

Enjoy!
