1
thaw chicken if needed and remove giblets- if desired skin as well -I left it on.
-
2
For those on low-fat and sodium diets-Do the chicken ahead on the prior day-wash it and remove skin and as much fat as you can(put it in crockput before that day's work- than night debone and place in fridge or freezer for a few hrs to bring fat to the top of the broth -skim it off).
-
3
Right after getting up - heat the mixture to just boiling in sauce pan - pour into crock pot.
-
4
warning- you need a little fat- do not try to remove it all or you will lose the flavor.
-
5
on the soups and broth- substitue low-fat, low-sodium for the regular for restricted diets.
-
6
Do not dilute the soups!
-
7
Put all ingredients in crockpot except noodles.
-
8
use no egg yolks.
-
9
Use seasonings listed to taste.

I put it on low right before I went to bed and 1/2 hours before the meal I wanted it for- turned it on high to get it good and hot for the noodles.
-
11
The noodle variety is per choice, I used the wide no-yolk variety.
-
12
TURN THE CROCKPOT OFF!
-
13
PUT DRY NOODLES IN COVER AND LET STEAM FOR 20 MINUTES.
-
14
This prevents the noodles from going to mush and absorbing more flavor.
