In reply to Lainey. Chicken with gravy over rice sounds amazing. I may have to try that next time! :)

This sounds similar to what my mom taught me, and what I grew up eating! There’s nothing like homemade chicken soup, and I love how many meals we get out of one chicken. I cook the chicken with some celery (the leafy part, too), carrots, onions and chicken bouillon cubes, which adds a nice flavor, and then discard all the cooked veggies once the chicken is done. I’ve never added the bones back in, but I would definitely like to try that next time! We have chicken with gravy over rice one night, and the next we have chicken soup and chicken salad. Thanks for the soup recipes!

I made this a few nights ago since both my husband and I have head colds. It was delicious! I didn’t make my own chicken broth (since I wasn’t feeling well enough to boil chicken for 4 hours) instead I bought a bunch and used a rotisserie chicken. I had so much left over that I sent some off to share with family. Thanks for the great recipe :o)

In reply to Buzz. This just must be the way grandmothers make soup. They certainly knew what they were doing didn't they? :)

In reply to Caroline. Thanks for the comment Caroline! Your version sounds wonderful. I have made stock in the crockpot before, but never did the actual soup in there. Next time maybe I'll try that! :)

I just made chicken noodle soup this week! I’ve been on a crockpot kick and wanted to do it in there. I also had a rotisserie chicken with some meat left on it from the day before. I filled my 3 qt crock pot with water and cooked the rotisserie chicken on low all night. In the morning I picked out the bones and put the broth and meat into my 6 qt crock pot. I added cut up onions, celery and carrots, plus some salt and pepper and parsley. I decided it didn’t look like enough broth for when I would want to add noodles so I added two cans of chicken broth and a cup of cut up chicken that I happened to have in the freezer. I cooked in for 6 hours on low and the house smelled delicious when I got home. I’d already done my meal plan for the week so after the soup cooled (without adding noodles) I put it into three separate Ziploc containers (not sure the size, I think the medium square ones) and put them in the freezer. Now I can pull out one when I want it, heat it up and add noodles and have delicious chicken noodle soup! All this to say, my recipe was a lot like yours, just no potatoes! So now you can try it in the crock pot next time and not have to watch over it!
