HEARTY HOMEMADE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP

This is one of the first recipes that I made off the top of my head when I was learning to cook as a newlywed 25 years ago. I've tweaked it a bit since then and now it's a family favorite. I have found that you can buy a ready cooked rotisserie chicken to save time or use leftover chicken. I use a food processor to make chopping the veggies much easier.
