Chicken & Noodles
Chicken & Noodles
I love making Chicken & Noodles on cold days and it’s 18 degrees F outside so let’s get started! This recipe saved my family in a 2009 snowstorm. My sister got stuck in a ditch in the worst Christmas snowstorm in Oklahoma history and my parents had to go rescue her. When they got back I had made a great big pot of Chicken & Noodles and they still talk about it.
