not much to share...

Sam is sick today and it's rainy out- i'm sooo in the mood for some soup (maybe i'm feeling empathetic toward Sam- or is that sympathetic- i always get those two confused?!)
this is what i really want (but i don't have the noodles):

Chicken & Noodles

2 cups cooked, cubed chicken breasts
1 10 oz pkg Raemes frozen noodles
1 stick margarine
2 cans chicken broth
salt, pepper, thyme to taste
¾ cup carrots, sliced
½ cup celery, sliced
½ cup onion

Saute onion, carrtos and celery in 2-3 Tbsp. butter until tender. Add chicken broth, chicken, vegetables, remaining butter (or a little less) and noodles to crock pot. Season with salt, pepper, thyme and bay leaf. Cook on low for 3-4 hours.

This freezes pretty well, too- you just have to add more water or chicken broth after you thaw it- or serve it thick (i like it that way).
