Homemade Egg Noodles

Instructions
Make your egg noodles (recipe below) so that they can dry while you're making the soup.
Place a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Add vegetables and garlic to the pot and cook until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Add bay leaves and season vegetables with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken broth to the pot and raise heat to bring liquid to a boil.
Add diced chicken to the pot, return soup to a boil, and reduce heat back to medium. Cook chicken for two minutes then add egg noodles.
Cook soup an additional five minutes or until noodles are tender and floating to the surface. Remove pot from heat.
Stir in parsley and/or dill. Remove bay leaves from soup and serve hot.
For homemade egg noodles
Beat eggs until well mixed.
Beat in water and salt.
Stir in flour with a spoon until combined. Once combined, separate into three balls.
Roll each ball out thin and cut into thins strips with a pizza cutter.
Let dry on a baking sheet with parchment paper or Silpat to avoid sticking.

Notes
If you prefer, you can use rotisserie chicken instead of raw chicken. If you use rotisserie chicken - add rotisserie chicken skin to the pot with the olive oil prior to adding the veggies for additional flavor. Cook with the soup then remove before serving.
