Chicken Noodle Soup
The original flu fighter, this soup can even cure the man flu well that’s if you have 5 hours or so …. I know that’s a long time for some soup but if you want the real deal with great taste, 100% natural & made from scratch this is the job for you! Plus all the ingredients are easy to find and available in all supermarkets, however try get an organic chicken if possible and support a local butcher. This soup is almost a meal in itself and this size portion will feed approx 8 soup bowls.
