This is a creamy Chicken Vegetable Soup with noodles. It has one of the heartiest noodles you’ll ever eat, Reames! Great for feeding a big family, or a crowd!!
Have you ever tried or even heard of Reames Noodles? Do you like thick noodles in your soups? Then these are definitely for you. My husband turned me onto them. I never even knew about them. His Mom use to make them at Thanksgiving time and serve them on a pile of mashed potatoes. I’m not a big fan of that, but I love these noodles. They are almost dumpling like.
What is it made of
My soup is made with canned vegetables, chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk and noodles. If you’re looking for a chicken vegetable soup keto style, all you have to do here is drop the noodles. It’s a great soup if you’re following the keto diet.
You’ll see what I used in the soup below. However, I took my picture after I cooked the chicken. The chicken was made earlier in the day to break up the time it takes. Sometimes, I work like that. If I break it up, I’m not standing on my feet for a really long time in the kitchen.
