MAKE SNOW DAY SOUP
now day soup is very similar to chicken noodle soup, but with kids in mind the ingredients are kept very simple. If your children like vegetables, you can easily add carrots and peas to this soup for extra nutrients and bulk.
Servings: 8

Ingredients
  • Egg noodles you can make these from scratch, but it is easier and less messy if you purchase ready made in the freezer section of your grocery
  • 4 small cans or one large can chicken stock
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Parsley
Instructions
  1. Put chicken breasts in a small sauce pan, cover with water, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 20 minutes or until cooked all the way through.
  2. While the chicken is boiling, have the kids cut out paper snowflakes to scatter on the kitchen table for when you eat your snow day soup meal.
  3. Go outside for a snowball fight, while chicken breasts cool (15 to 20 minutes) and then chop chicken into small pieces.
  4. Bring chicken stock to a boil and add egg noodles. When noodles are soft, throw in chicken, parsley and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Your snow day soup is ready to serve! Please note that if you add additional vegetables, they will need to be boiled at the same time as the noodles in order to make them soft and palatable. The goal with this soup is to create lasting memories for your children, while serving a warming and nutritious meal. Grilled cheese sandwiches go well with this soup too!
