chicken noodle soup

noodles
2 eggs 
cup of flour (actually quite a bit more) 
3 tbsp milk
dash of salt

mix together and roll out, cut into thin strips and lay out on a towel... (you'll probably need a nit of flour to get the mixture thick enough to even cut. 

leave out to dry on a towel for at least an hour

put some water in a big pot (not too much, only enough to cover the chicken that will be in there soon), with some chopped onions, carrots and celery and some chicken stock powder and boil for a few minutes until the veggies are soft, reduce heat and add a few chicken breasts, let it simmer on low/medium heat for maybe 20 minutes.... until it's done! 

chop the chicken and save the broth for later! 

i used a 4-5  cups of cream and cooked it until it got frothy and then added 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup ( i made a big pot for alot of people, when i made it just for the family i only used 2 cups of cream and 1 can of mushroom soup!) then i added most of the broth and the noodles and turned the temp up kind of high so the noodles would cook and then near the end i added the chicken and WAHLAAAAH! oh yes, and i added garlic powder, salt, pepper and some more chicken stock powder!

OK, this is probably a really dumb question...you put in raw chicken breasts right? I've never boiled chicken before, so I want to make sure I am not salmonella-ing the rest of the stuff in the pot. :)

yep! and then you can slice it when you think it's done (15-20 minutes of simmering) and make sure the inside isn't pink.... then you're good... it's done!
