Your soup was good i didn’t put alot of rosemary in it and added a little extra garlic and other seasoning. My mother-in-law liked it and I did to but I worked 8 hours and she added more into when I was at work. She added potatoes which I was she wouldn’t have.
It might be 90 degrees outside (and rising) but my office kitchen is always freezing and this is the perfect lunch to warm me up. This is such a yummy comfort food dish! Also the onion trick is life-changing.
You can try filling the plastic solo cups mid-way and freezing (like we used to freeze juice in cups as a kids) then store in a large zip lock bag. So when you’re ready to heat and eat just pop out a cube or two heat it up and add your noodles.
I am going to make this for dinner tonight. However, I have a whole chicken in mind. Did you ever make this with a whole chicken as you mentioned? I am also going to add homemade frozen-type noodles at the end–while shredding the chicken. I have rosemary and thyme in my garden and am always happy to find recipes that call for them. I think it will be yummy!
Hi Marita! I’m sorry I was unable to answer your comment yesterday. I have not tried this recipe with a whole chicken yet, but I think it would be delicious. I hope you enjoyed the recipe!
I made this exactly as the recipe called for. I cooked the soup on high for 3 hours. Added the noodles into the slow cooker for 10 minutes after the 3 hours. The carrots were still entirely too hard, crunchy. As well as the celery. I feel like this could have used an additional hour at high… even the chicken wasn’t soft and didn’t shred easily. I also feel like I had entirely too much chicken for the amount of noodles. That being said, this beats a can of chicken noodle soup any day. Next time, I will either cook on low for 6 hours or extend the high cooking time to 4 hours. I’ll also add more noodles. I also will double the bay leaf and rosemary just because I like those flavors and didn’t feel like they really popped. Thank you for the recipe!!!
Making the soup at 3x recipe. Calls for 21-24 cups of the stock. Down further it says pour 6 cups over all the
Ingredients and cook. Then it says add as much of the one cup left if the stock. So , in total that’s 7 cups.
Why does it call for the 21-24 cups ? Am I missing something?
Thanks!
Hi Margaret! When you click the 3x button, it only updates the recipe ingredients, so the instructions will still need to be adjusted accordingly. I hope this helps!
So good! This rosemary was unexpectedly but welcome. I held back a couple of cups of stock and used them to cook the noodles separately. I don’t know how the noodles will hold up for leftovers, but they were perfect in the first servings.
I made this recipe as is and also found the vegetables to be undercooked, still somewhat crunchy. I think if I had 8 hours to let it cook on low, it would have made a difference. I only had 4-5 hours to finish the soup, which was just not enough cooking time for the vegetables. If I made this recipe again I would likely omit the rosemary altogether, as I felt it was very overpowering for this recipe. Otherwise, the chicken shredded perfectly and it did not take long to throw all of the ingredients into the crock pot! I will definitely do some experimenting with this recipe and make the changes I mentioned. Thank you for sharing!
Hi Jonathan! Since the chicken is cooked as a part of this recipe, you may want to try using the canned chicken in my Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup instead. I hope you enjoy the recipe if you try it!
I’ve made a total of 6 recipes from Erin since discovering her website. The strawberry/blueberry oatmeal bar is a HUGE hit in my family! this chicken noodle soup recipe is simply amazing. So thankful for Erin!
Just made this today and it is super tasty. I played around with the ingredients and added more veggies and chicken plus added Mrs. Dash. But this is exactly as stated — a good simple recipe for Chicken Noodle soup.
This is one of my fave go to’s now! Sometimes it can be a little bland but I think that it due to my lack of seasoning with pepper and salt enough. Thanks for the delish recipe! I’m excited to check out more on your page :)
This recipe is easy enough for me to make for myself when I’m sick (although I also enjoy it when I’m well). It is a good, classic chicken noodle. I especially like that I don’t have to chop onion. The only change I make is that I also add some fresh thyme since I already have it. I’ve tried this recipe with egg noodles and with chickpea noodles and both are great if you follow the instructions of cooking the noodles separately. Thanks for another great recipe!
Hi Jessica! It’s so hard to know why some people are successful with recipes and some aren’t. It’s such a mystery to me! So glad you enjoyed the soup! Thank you for this kind review!
Erin, if making this to freeze, can you cook the noodles and freeze them separately, then combine them when thawing? Making this for a friend undergoing some chemotherapy.
Hi Tracy! TO FREEZE: Store cooked and cooled soup in an airtight freezer-safe storage container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
If you wanted to freeze them separately you could but it isn’t necessary. Hope this helps!
I loved it! So comforting and really easy to make!

This is great! Not sure why there are multiple people who had issues with the cook times not being enough, I had no issues.
