  4. kirsten.d? says:

    How many servings does this make?

  5. Brianna Blaxall says:

    Could you use regular noodles instead of egg noodles?

  6. Six Sisters says:

    Regular noodles should work just fine!

    How many people does this feed? I am needing to feed a large group!

  9. Six Sisters says:

    Hannah, this recipe feeds about 8 to 10 people. It just depends on how big the servings are. Hope this helps! -The Six Sisters

  10. Rachael S says:

    Can you make this on the stove top? I would love to make this tonight

  11. Six Sisters says:

    You can surely do it on the stove top.

  12. Kevin says:

    Would it work to cook chicken breasts in with the broth and veggies all day instead of adding cooked chicken later?

  13. Six Sisters says:

    We don't know why it wouldn't. But we have only cooked it as according to the directions above. Hope it all works out for you! :) -The Six Sisters

  14. Cristin says:

    I make this with raw chicken all the time--I use thighs (about 2 lbs for my family of 6) and leave it in the crockpot on low for 7-8 hrs, to be certain that they're cooked through. Shred and return to crockpot when you add the egg noodles and it's DELICIOUS. It also turns into a freezer-to-crockpot meal this way. Add all the ingredients except for the broth to a Ziploc, freeze it together, and then it's ready to go right in the crockpot with the broth added at cooking time.

  15. Jodi says:

    I tried this last night, and it was AWESOME!!! My whole family loved it! I let it cook on low for 10 hours, as I am at work for quite some time during the day...I put the egg noodles in on high for 30 minutes and it turned out perfect! Thanks for the great recipes!

  16. Katie says:

    I saw on another link that you could freeze this meal but all it said was to freeze before cooking. I was wondering, do you freeze it without the chicken in it? I would assume you still add the uncooked egg noodles as directed above in the last hour of cooking but was unsure about the chicken. Thank you.

  17. Cyd says:

    It would work fine to freeze it with the chicken or you could add the chicken later. It's all precooked chicken so either way would work.

  18. Lynn says:

    That is what I have done every time I make it and it has worked just fine for me. Usually the chicken is still frozen when I put it in and it is always done by the end (I usually do closer to 8 hours)

  19. Jenny says:

    Any ideas on a cream of chicken substitute? My son is allergic to milk so the cream of soups aren't an option for this mama :(

  20. BettyRowland says:

    Thank you for sending such a readable recipe. Even I can understand it. I am looking forward to making the soup.

  21. Lorri says:

    My husband made this and the noodles were over chief. Any thoughts on how to avoid this?

  22. Leticia says:

    Just made this on the stove top. Wonderful recipe! My one year old and husband loved it!!

  23. Rachel says:

    Will this feed very hungry 2 adults and 3 children? :)

  24. Cyd says:

    Yes, it will easily feed 2 adults and 3 children.

  25. Angela tingey says:

    What do you suggest substituting for the cream of chicken soup?

  26. nicole says:

    would this fit in a 4 quart slow cooker?

  27. Cyd says:

    Yes, it should fit just fine in a 4 quart slow cooker.

  28. Nicole says:

    Thank you

  29. Nicole says:

    Thank you

  30. Emily says:

    This was a great recipe full of flavor. However, my noodles turned to mush after cooking on high for an hour. I think next time I will monitor them a little better or cut the time in half.

  31. Jill Grzywinski says:

    This is a wonderful, simple and delicious recipe. Just perfect for damp cold fall afternoon. I added a can of green beans for color. Otherwise I followed the recipe to the tee. Awesome Six Sister's!!!!

  32. Sheena says:

    You could just leave it out entirely. The soup is still tasty without the addition of the cream soup.

  33. Katie says:

    If I used home made egg noodles instead of store bought kind, how would that affect the cooking time? I have a gluten intolerance, so it is easier for me to just make my egg noodles at home with a GF flour (plus I think they taste better :) ) so that I know I can eat them. I have never tried them in a crockpot recipe though, so I don't know how it would affect the timing of everything. Any ideas?

  34. Lavues says:

    Wonderful idea! Love your blog!

  35. Jessica Gavin says:

    The cold bug got our house good, I'm on the hunt for Chicken Noodle Soups and this one sounds amazing, thanks!

  36. Alisa Neilsen says:

    Would this work with homemade egg noodles?

  37. Momma Cyd says:

    Sure, but you would add the noodles at the end and cook until tender.

  38. Lynn says:

    Could this be done in instant pot and how long would you cook
