Soup? I got soup!

Take a whole chicken, thawed, and drop it into a large pot, large enough to completely immerse the bird in water. Bring to a simmer, and let cook for at least 1-1/2 hours until the chicken comes off the bone with little effort.

You'll also need:

Mixed veggies: your choice, Peas and Carrots mixture is good, and healthy!
Rice: Any kind works, Wild Rice will need to be cooked for longer though
Noodles: Bowties or other sorts of flat newdohlsch!
Mushrooms: Canned works just fine, but fresh are better, sliced
Anahiem chilis: For a bit of spice
Bullion
opt: Potatoes, cubed beef steak can be either substituted for the chicken, or thrown in with. No such thing as too much meat in a chunky soup, I say.

After boiling the chicken, remove from the broth. Do not dump broth. Strip the meat from the chicken and discard the bones, breaking chicken pieces into 1-2" pieces, then return the meat to the broth. Add rice, mixed veggies, mushrooms and chilis, then simmer for about an hour and a half. Cook for a little longer to bring out the spiciness from the chilis if you'd like. 10 minutes prior to serving, or removing from heat, Add the egg noodles. Adding them too early makes them turn to mush. Also, at the same time, add bullion to taste. Be careful not to add too much, or it will be too salty and will ruin the whole batch.
