Chicken Noodle Soup

I got this recipe from a friend and she served it over mashed potatoes.  It was delicious!

Place chicken in large saucepan.  Cover with cold water; add 1 tsp. salt. Bring to a boil slowly and simmer until chicken is tender.  Remove scum from the surface as it forms.  Remove chicken from water and let it cool enough to handle it.
Add:
3 celery stalks, diced
1 large onion, diced
1 carrot, diced
pepper to taste
bullion cubes to taste, (chives, leeks and dill weed can also be added-I don't ever use these).

Shred chicken and add to broth.  Also add homemade noodles and simmer for 20 minutes.  If you aren't using homemade noodles use: Country Pasta, Homemade style egg pasta noodles.

Noodles:

4 whole eggs
3/4 cup water
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 1/2 cups flour

Whisk eggs and water until frothy.  Mix salt, baking powder and flour together and combine with eggs.  Add more flour as needed until the dough is still enough to roll out.  Roll out till ver thing.  Let it sit for an hour, then roll it up and cut 1/4 in ch strips and add to chicken stock.

Serve over mashed potatoes!
