What Goes With Chicken Noodle Soup?
Chicken noodle soup is a meal in and of itself, so you don’t really need to pair it with any sides (besides maybe a few saltine crackers). But, if you want to go the extra mile, try something bread-based to soak up all that delicious broth. Here are some delicious options:
· Basic Biscuits
· Grilled Cheese Sandwich
· French Baguettes
· Classic Dinner Rolls
· Toasted Garlic Bread
How to Store Chicken Noodle Soup
Store leftover chicken noodle soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three to four days.
Can You Freeze Chicken Noodle Soup?
Yes! You can freeze chicken noodle soup — and you should if you don’t plan to eat it within a few days. If you’re making this recipe with the intention of freezing it, consider preparing the soup and noodles separately. Frozen noodles will break down and become mushy when thawed.
To freeze chicken noodle soup (with or without the noodles), pour serving-sized portions of the cooled soup into freezer bags labeld with the date. Freeze for up to six months. Re-heat on the stove.

“This is so easy to make and so good. “I cook the chicken breasts in the broth to make the broth a bit richer, then build the soup from there.”
“This recipe has been our family’s go to chicken noodle soup for years!” raves another Allrecipes member. “It’s also super easy to make when you don’t feel well! I add about 3 more cups of broth so that I can just use a whole pound of noodles. So delicious!”
“Very easy,”. “So flavourful! Great comfort food on a cold night. We made grilled cheese sandwiches to go along with it.”
