Quick Chicken Soup

I make this recipe once a week - last night in fact. It's easy and my family loves it.

Quick Chicken Soup

2 cans chicken broth (or 2 c. homemade chicken broth and 4+ c. water)
1 cooked chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
1 carrot, diced (opt’l)
1 onion, diced (opt’l)
1 celery, diced (opt’l)
1 c. noodles of choice
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. salt (or to taste)
Pinch of pepper

Put chicken broth in medium sized saucepan on high heat. When starting to boil, add carrot, celery and onion. Let cook for about 5 minutes. When carrots are starting to get tender, add noodles. Cook for 10 more minutes. When the noodles are about done, add the cooked chicken, oregano, salt and pinch of pepper. Cook for 5 more minutes.

Note: For the noodles, I use Tinkayda fettucini. I break them in pieces to make them easier to eat in a soup.
