Old Fashioned Chicken Soup - Roxanne 21 - 06-25-2007
From Splendid Soups
I had some leftover turkey from a roast and made this recipe this evening because it is VERY COLD AND RAINY here---wonderful winter night for this type of dish.
We love chicken soups and this recipe was quite good with a few added herbs/spices. I also added a baby zucchini to the vegetables. It really needed more seasoning---none was really given in the recipe. I also added some fresh thyme (chopped) and a touch of onion powder. I do not have the particular noodles called for so subbed some fettucini instead---worked beautifully!! I would give this a 6--maybe 7--
The side----English muffins with Roma tomatoes and cheeses---great for a side but not sure about an accompaniment with chicken noodle soup---I added a bit of chopped fresh basil over the tomatoes---I think this would be much better with a tomato based soup---IMHO. I will definitely make these again---a solid 8-8 1/2.
Looking through that magazine again---I think more of these are upcoming because of our current weather---as long as the electricity stays with us---keep your fingers (and whatever else) crossed.

I'm sure not acclimated to Washington summers again yet!! The thot of soup in June (almost July) has been unheard of the 15 years in California - but, looks like I can do summer and winter both here all year around.
This one is marked to try, but I haven't yet... The Avocado-Tomato Melts sound good also. "Kluski" noodles - I haven't heard of before, but will look before I go for just noodles.
thanks for the review.

Jean, kluski noodles are common here for some reason. They just look a little more like a homemade noodle that has dried. They are nice in soup. The brand in the grocery stores here is Mrs. Weiss.
