Recipe - Creamy Chicken Noodle

This is one of my absolute favorite soups for lingering, cold winter days.
You won't regret trying it!
CREAMY CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 qt + 1 cup chicken broth or stock
4 oz egg noodles
1/2 c butter (I used 1/4 cup and it was fine)
3/4 c onion, chopped
3/4 c celery, chopped
3/4 c carrots, chopped
2 T flour
1 qt milk, warmed
1/2 cups chicken, cooked and diced
1 can cream of chicken
1 tsp parsley
Add salt and pepper to chicken broth. Bring to a boil and add noodles. Cook until tender. In a different pan, add butter, 1 cup chicken broth and vegetables. Cook until veggies are tender. Add flour to veggie mixture and stir until smooth. Cook for 5 minutes on low. Add flour mixture to noodles and broth. Add chicken and cream of chicken. Cook until thick, stir occassionally. Salt, pepper and parsley to taste. Best served with rolls. :)
Did I mention its kid-friendly? That's saying something because this toddler is becoming very picky these days.
