My husband said We need a really great Chicken Noodle Soup recipe for years. Can I tell you the secret to a great Chicken Noodle Soup? It is definitely Homestyle Egg Noodles {found in the freezer section}. I also add half and half and a couple cans of cream of chicken soup to make it extra creamy! If you prefer your soup more brothy than creamy just omit the half and half, and it will still be delicious.

“I’m with you on the sunshine, and even though I really appreciate rain, I’m always happy to see the sun return. Fortunately, here in the desert, we generally don’t get rain in the winter, so there’s usually sunshine available when we need it most. I like frittatas for lunch or dinner, so I’m saving this recipe for when I want to make one.
