(I would encourage you to email me the recipes so that I can put them in the right format to pass on.)

I am a fan of Gordon Ramsay. Like most of you, there is part of me that would like to take a bar of soap to his mouth. However his antics and language are part of the professional cooking life. It really makes you appreciate your home kitchens, doesn't it?
Of all the celebrity Chef's I have to admit he is one of my favorites. The man can cook and knows how to command a kitchen. Trying to find a video of him without bleeps is almost impossible.

So before you view this video I wanted to give you a heads up there are a few bleeps. I think it is a great recipe and very easy to follow. Let me know what you think.

 As we start the month of November it seems that our lives go into another gear. Along with the holiday seasons just around the corner, the flu bug seems to have bitten many. I don't know if it has ever been proven that Chicken Noodle Soup has healing ingredients. What I do know is that it makes people feel good, a comfort food.

There is just something about the combination of warm chicken broth, soft noodles and tender chicken bites brought together on a spoon that soothes the mind, body and soul.


This recipe does not require any knowledge of cooking.
Very little effort.
So.....
