Warm Homestyle Chicken Noodle Soup and Giveaway!!

So, I’m taking a very short break from Christmas baking for this wonderful warm, hearty, stick to your ribs kinda soup. It’s been COLD here in CA (I know it doesn’t snow, but I am freezing!!) and I knew I wanted to make a good piping hot soup. I started throwing things together and I’m telling you this is one of my newest favorites. Lots of great vegetables and I love the noodles I chose. They are actually a stir fry/chow mein style noodle. You must try it. Go to the asian section of your grocery store and pick some up. They make for the perfect thin homestyle noodle. I cut them up into small bite size pieces to make it easier to spoon up!

Take a peek and enjoy some soup!!
