Marjoram and thyme come through nicely in this old-fashioned soup that tastes just like Grandma used to make. You can modify the recipe to include vegetables your family enjoys. My kids love carrots, so I always toss in extra. —Coleen Martin, Brookfield, Wisconsin

Tip

Refrigerate Chicken Soup without Noodles

When I make my favorite chicken noodle soup, I find it tastes better if I refrigerate the soup without the noodles. When it’s time to serve, I add the noodles to the amount of soup I’m going to use and cook them until tender. —Martha Dimitch, Nineveh, Indiana

I followed the recipe to the letter, and it did not turn out very good. In fact, it was too salty. I will not make this again, nor do I wish to keep it in my recipe box.

I'm a 21 year old newly wed and I haven't been cooking very long. I was so pleased with this recipe, it was easy and just as good as my moms. It didn't take long to make either. Very flavorful, and I even gave some to my neighbor when she was sick. This is a keeper.

I love making this recipe and have made it for several years now!!! Although I leave the teaspoon of salt out because the chicken broth seems to make up for it. Otherwise it's too salty...even for my salt-loving fiance!

Very very good! Was the perfect comfort for my son who was suffering from a cold, plus a nice recipe for a cold winter night! I added some extra types of frozen veggies that I had on hand too!

What a wonderful, hearty soup this is! I always double my batch and put extra chicken and vegetables! This soup is a winner with everyone in my family - especially my picky little son!

This will be my go-to recipe for chicken noodle soup now, with a few modifications. I used 1/2 cup of celery instead of 1/4 because I like lots of vegetables, and felt the carrot and celery should be equal. The biggest adjustment I made was for the noodles- I used about 2 1/4 cups to 3 cups- 1 1/4 just did not seem like enough. But this is personal preference, as my husband and I like a hearty soup, full of noodles.

i liked this recipe, but i think i would cut back just a tad on the thyme and marjoram. was just a little over seasoned for my liking. however, my husband really enjoyed it.
