Chicken Noodle Soup

Happy Halloween!!
I started a tradition way back when. chicken noodle soup before trick-or-treating! it was always something we looked forward too, but it took a long time!

now that the kids are older and the day is crazy busy, i was about to opt for a frozen pizza for dinner. but the hubby gave me the ol' "you're going to break tradition?" with the saddest looking face.

so i caved.

but i'm a lot smarter this time around.

Thrive cooked chopped chicken
Thrive celery
Thrive onions
Thrive carrots
Thrive potato chunks
and some frozen grandma noodles.

oh baby!
it was SO good.
took me a total of 18 minutes
(instead of the usual hour, and mostly cause we were waiting on the rolls to warm up!)

saved some time, filled some bellies, had a fabulous night!

Enjoy your halloween candy tonight!
