Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

Ingredients

• 4 cups chopped, cooked chicken meat  (I just get one of those rotisserie chickens from the store. SUPER easy to peel and put right into the pot!)
• 1 cup chopped celery
• 1/4 cup chopped carrots
• 1/4 cup chopped onion
• 1/4 cup butter
• 8 ounces egg noodles
• 12 cups water
• 9 cubes chicken bouillon
• 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 2 – 4 (depending on how strong of flavor— I went with four it was AWESOME) concentrated chicken stock tubs

Directions

1. In a large stock pot, saute celery and onion in butter or margarine.
2. Add chicken, carrots, water, bouillon cubes, concentrated chicken stock, marjoram, black pepper, bay leaf, and parsley. Simmer for 30 minutes.
3. Add noodles, and simmer for 10 more minutes.
