Chicken and Noodles

Hey ladies! To me there is nothing like a bowl of chicken and noodles when I'm sick, when it's chilly outside, pretty much anytime I am in need of a yummy bowl of comfort. And the best thing about this is that it's fool proof so your hubbies can make it and take care of you. :) There isn't specific measuring it's all about how much you want to make, but the KEY ingredient is Reames frozen noodles. They are the best noodles in my opinion and are found in most chain grocery stores in the frozen bread section.

Serves: 2-3
Approx time: 30 min

Ingredients:
Boneless Skinless Chicken breast (2 -3)
Reames Homestyle Egg noodles (frozen) - 12 oz bag
Chicken broth
salt & pepper

1. Put chicken in a slow cooker with water or broth and let it cook for hours till it's done and can be easily shredded (I usually put mine on in the morning on low and take it out after work)
2. Put frozen noodles in a pot with chicken broth instead of water. I like to add enough broth to just cover my noodles and then some, but if you want it more soupy add more water/broth.
3. Cook noodles until done as directed on package
4. About 5-10 min before the noodles are done add shredded chicken, salt, and pepper to taste and let it finish off altogether.
5. EAT!

See, super simple and super yummy! For beef and noodles, replace chicken breast with a roast and chicken broth with beef broth! Don't have broth? Add bouillon cubes to water. You can serve this by itself or serve it over mashed potatoes for extra comfort or serve it with veggies or whatever your heart desires. The hardest part will be getting your hubbies to make it for YOU ("Babe, what's 'bouillon'?") Happy Cooking Lovelies!
