Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 whole chicken-cut into pieces or 6-8 chicken breasts or 8-10 chicken thighs. Boil chicken parts in water until done. De-bone and remove skin-sit aside. Save the water (now chicken broth).
3 to 4 pkgs. of Reams Noodles
1 1/2 cups diced Onion or 8 to 10 Green Onions (chopped top and bottoms)
6 to 8 Ribs of Celery-chopped
2 teaspoons minced garlic
4 teaspoons granule Chicken Bouillon or 4 Chicken Flavored CUBES
Add to broth already in pot:
In a large spice ball ADD 4 bay leaves
2 teaspoons Oregano
3 teaspoons Rose Mary
3 teaspoons Parsley
Clip spice ball together and hang on side of pot
Add in chicken and at least 2 -14 oz. cans of chicken broth to the pot or enough to cover noodles and other ingredients-about 1" to 2" over all.
Directions:
Directions:
Bring all to boil, reduce heat and cook until noddles are tender.

Makes a lot. At least for 12 people.

**Sometimes I use a few drops of yellow food coloring so the noodles have more color in them when they are done.

Be sure none of the bay leaves get into the pot of noodles.

After cooling the entire pot of chicken & noodles you may set in fridge for over night and reheat for your meal the next day. Add a little more Chicken Broth if needed but this gives the spices in the ball a chance to marry a little more before serving. Watch very closely so you don't scorch. Be sure to keep the spice ball in the pot the entire time of cooking, cooling and reheating.

**Your mother, Amy, always wondered how I got the noodles so yellow and yummy looking. Well now I've spilled the "beans" on that.
