Homestyle chicken soup with a twist. Juice of 1/2 a lemon is the twist! It absolutely makes this soup delicious and bright. Lemons are so good for you, so it gives the chicken noodle soup recipe even more nutritional value. My 11-month-old daughter and I had the stomach flu this last week, and this soup helped us regain our strength back and also strengthen our immune systems! This is the only thing our stomachs allowed us to eat all week.

For Littles

This is a perfect meal for littles 7 months+! Just shred the chicken into smaller pieces if serving for the first time. The nutritional value for your little one is incredible!

How To

Saute veggies in olive oil and then add spices.

Dump in broth and the chicken and let cook.

Take the chicken out and shred, put back into the soup with pasta noodles. Let cook until pasta is done and then squeeze your lemon into the soup.
