- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts about 2 medium size breasts

Peel and chop the carrots. Wash and slice the celery. Dice the onion into small pieces and mince the garlic.
Add chicken breasts to the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Sprinkle with spices.
Pour chicken broth over vegetables. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.
Remove chicken from the slow cooker. Dice the chicken and then add it back to the soup mixture.
Add eggs noodles. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the egg noodles are tender. Serve immediately. Makes 6 servings, 1 ½ cups each.
Remove the insert from the slow cooker immediately after the noodles are tender and serve soup immediately. This will prevent the noodles from going soggy.
Cooking times for the noodles will vary with the type of noodle used. Cook just until the noodles are tender or your desired consistency.
