Good Monday to you! Hope everyone had a nice weekend 🙂
I am in love with this nice chunky bowl of Chicken Noodle Soup! I know I make a lot of soups and say I love all of them, but this one really is one of my newest favorites. You’ll have to scroll down and look at the noodles I picked up at Whole Foods for this recipe. I’ve never seen them before, but if you can get your hands on them, give them a try, you’ll love it! Tastes like it’s right out of a cafe.
In these winter months, even though it’s not all that cold here in CA, there’s nothing I like better to eat than a nice bowl of hot soup, hope you’ll all enjoy my latest recipe. We at the entire pot in just a few days. Enjoy 🙂
Found these great noodles @ Whole Foods, they were in the Kosher section. Really were awesome in this soup. Any old small noodle will work if you can’t find these. I really liked the stir fry noodles too.

Chunky Chicken Noodle and Vegetable Soup
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium white onion finely chopped
- 5 stalks of celery chopped
- 4 large carrots peeled and sliced
- 1 cup sweet peppers chopped
- 1 zucchini chopped 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 yellow squash chopped 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 1/2 cups eggplant chopped 1/2 inch pieces
- 5 cloves fresh garlic minced
- 48 oz chicken broth I used 1 full 32 oz size and 1/2 of another
- 9 oz small noodles of choice
- 1 tablespoon coarse Dijon Mustard
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce doesn't make it spicy, just gives a nice flavor
- 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded (lightly seasoned with salt and pepper)
- 1 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
- pinches of Kosher salt fresh ground black pepper and Lawry's Garlic Salt to TASTE (this differs for everyone, just season until you like it)
Instructions
- Place oil into a large dutch oven over medium heat. When hot, saute the onion, celery, carrots, sweet peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, and eggplant. Cook and stir until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in fresh garlic; mix in for 30 seconds then stir in the broth. Increase heat until the soup just starts to boil. Stir in noodles and cook for 7-10 minutes or until noodles are cooked through, al dente. Stir in dijon mustard, hot sauce, chicken, parsley, and seasonings to taste. Reduce heat to low and simmer until ready to serve.

Have a great new week! Come back soon for more healthy eating 🙂
Mmmm tomato soup is my favourite, especially when it has a bit of a kick to it like I imagine this one does – looks yummy!
Hi. Love your site ,,, I too love to cook and bake! I like the chicken noodle recipe I was just curious, is the hot sauce like franks red hot sauce??? Tks again keep the recipes coming! O:-)
Thanks so much Cheryl! I use hot sauce like Cholula or Tabasco 🙂 I think Franks would be great too!
Wonderful recipe would like to know the nutritional value to logue in my food journal. Thanks!
Made this soup – could have used more broth and a little more of a kick as it was rather bland, but my kids liked it and had a good time helping me shop for the veggies and took turns cutting them up with me. The noodles were something that I found in the Kosher section at Sprouts/Henrys.
PS – I personally like reading reviews from folks that have actually made the soup or any other recipe that you post rather than “oh, that LOOKS great”. 🙂
Wow!, this was a real quality post. In theory I d like to write like this too ? taking time and real effort to make a good article? but what can I say? I keep putting it off and never seem to get something done
This soup looks so good and also so healthy. I’m going to print it off and try it this weekend. Thank you for sharing it with easy to follow directions too. 🙂
Blessings,
Debbie
Just stumbled on this recipe. Love the thin Thai noodles. One of my favorite things to do is make soup! Your recipe will be added to the list! Thanks for sharing.
Such noodles can be purchased at any Jewish grocery or on Kosher.com. They’re also made to be cooked with the soup! Chicken noodle soup is a traditional Jewish food, so you’ll find many Kosher companies that make great noodles! Recipe sounds awesome!!!
I have made this soup so many times already that I just had to post a comment on how good it is! We love this soup at my house…its the best chunky chicken noodle vegetable soup ever!!
