After much urging from acupuncturist and craving it since pregnancy, I decided it was worth a try for my health to make chicken noodle soup ("not the chicken that is killed after 45 days, the chicken at Whole Foods" he says). Cody said he would support me as he likes the idea of a 'cohesive' kitchen. No 2 different meals going on here.
I have literally never cooked meat in all my life. No joke. I stopped eating it shortly after moving out of my parents. So, here is probably the easiest chicken noodle soup recipe, although it may not be 'right' it was tasty!
I didn't even know where the meat section was at Whole Foods, and after seeing how lost I was, the butcher offered to chop the thigh meat up for me so I didn't have to do anything with it at home, yes!
I filled a large pot halfway with water and turned it on to get to a boil. Meanwhile I chopped up a couple carrots and kale. Did not have onion or celery. I also chopped up about an inch of fresh ginger. Then I added the vegetables, ginger, and chicken to the pot with the water. salt and pepper to taste. When it came to a boil I added some whole wheat pasta and cooked until done. The chicken pieces were big so this was good amount of cook time. If smaller, add pasta with everything else. It was very good! A little weird to eat for us, but good.
