Easy Chicken Noodle Soup
Can’t get any easier! This is a very simple noodle dish. You can use any kind of noodles you’d like, it could be vermicelli, bean thread noodles or glass noodles, or you can even use spaghetti noodles. I used store bough chicken broth and shredded rotisserie chicken, and I added some veggies. Some shiitake mushrooms would be nice added to this soup also. The dried tarragon gives it a sweet nice balance flavor, it compliments any chicken soup.
