Directions
Farmhouse Chicken Soup With Spaetzle, This is a hearty soup topped with spaetzle, which our family loves It is great to have on a cold winter day, or if we are not too hungry we have the soup for dinner with some crusty bread on the side Enjoy!, i cheated because I had some leftover spaetzles that I bought; what a great way to used them up This came out as the perfect chicken noodle soup , The use of spaetzles instead of noodles was a really nice change My husband was very pleased with it I am sure I will make this soup several times over the next few months as the weather gets colder
