ISO: Chicken Noodle Soup

[Jennifer D]

Can anyone suggest a light - and somewhat simple - chicken noodle soup recipe - from CL or elsewhere?? I know of one recipe from a Jan/Feb 98 or 99 issue, but I don't know whether it's any good...

Thanks! My poor fiancee is ailing, and I've yet to learn to make his mom's chicken soup http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif

Add carrots and cover with water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 hour. Remove chicken from soup and let cool. Remove meat from bones and shred, discard skin.
