Quick Dinner

We were out too late today, alright, so late was till 5ish but still, it was too late for me to make the dinner I had planned. So I threw together a quick dinner from Wednesday night's left overs.

I make a roast chicken once every week to 10 days.  I always make broth from the bones and then we either have chicken soup or I just freeze the stock for later use.

Tonight's dinner:

4 c chicken stock from the freezer
whatever chicken was left from the roaster
left over potatoes and carrots from the roaster, cut up
I cooked a handful of Wacky Noodles in the broth...

....and volia, a quick easy dinner for a cold January evening.




This was my first time making chicken soup this way. It was delicious. I typically cut up the raw veggies and add them in to simmer in the broth all day. The flavor the carrots and potatoes already had from being roasted add an new depth to the soup. I will be making it this way again.















What quick meals have you made that turned out better than expected?
