Chicken Noodle Soup

This isn't as much a "recipe" as just a general idea. It's pretty basic, but Tierney asked if I was going to add it to my blog, so I guess I will. We had it last night and it was so good on a cold fall day.

2 chicken breasts, diced (raw)
6 carrots, sliced
3 celery stalks, diced
1/2 c. onion, diced
water (enough to cover everything and provide as much broth as you want)
chicken bouillon (however much you need for the amount of water you add)
salt & pepper
1 lb. pasta (this made a LOT so you could definitely cut this part down if you don't want leftovers)

Put all ingredients except pasta in a large pot. Cover and boil/simmer until carrots are tender (the chicken will be cooked by then). Cook pasta in a separate pot (you could just add it to the rest and cook, but I don't like to do that. It seems to soak up too much of the broth). Stir cooked pasta into the soup.

Note: you could also use canned chicken broth in place of the water and bouillon
