Julie’s Notes: My version of chicken noodle soup for all of you with colds and flu’s. The bamboo shoots look so much like egg noodles, they can even fool the kids!I tested this recipe with a 12 year old and no complaints!
*Notes:
This recipe can also be made in a slow-cooker! Simply combine all ingredients in the slow-cooker, and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.
