When I joined Girl Scouts, my troop met once a month and did pretty cool stuff. One day we made chicken noodle soup over a campfire. From then on, I knew that I'd only eat chicken soup if it was homemade. Real pieces of chicken and vegetables and EGG NOODLES! That's just perfection in a bowl.
I've spent a good majority of my recipe-obsessed "adult" life looking for the perfect recipe. It seems like all the ones up til now have been lacking; mostly in flavor that sends me reeling back to my cold winter MN childhood days trying to stomach down the from-the-can soup.
This one is the first recipe for chicken noodle soup that I have ever instantly loved. I like that there were meatballs in it too. I think that they definitely helped contribute to the flavor.
