    When I think of fall, I think of soup. Maybe because it is flu season, but also because of the cooler weather. There are summer days when I dream of making soup in the fall, like our Dairy Free Tomato Soup and this yummy chicken noodle soup.

    Top tip: Make extra soup (without the noodles) so you can freeze it and save it for a day when you are super slammed or don’t know what to make for dinner.

    What you need

    This delicious soup requires fresh ingredients, which in my opinion are the best part of this soup. We love how easy this recipe is and we know you will as well.

    Rotini Pasta

    We use gluten-free noodles because I have celiac disease, but you can use whatever type of pasta you prefer. I know of some people who prefer to use wide egg noodles in their soups. It all comes down to preference.

    If you are looking for another gluten-free soup recipe, check out our Gluten-Free Cream of Chicken Soup and Butternut Squash Soup recipes.

    Chicken Stock (Or Broth)

    For the base of this easy Instant Pot chicken noodle soup, you will need either chicken stock or chicken broth. You can buy boxes of chicken broth at the store or you can make homemade broth. All that matters is that you have a flavorful chicken broth or stock.

    How to make it

    • Using the sauté function on your Instant Pot, sauté diced onion and celery in bacon grease until slightly translucent
    • Add carrots, chicken, stock, seasoning and pasta to the pot
    • Add water to the max line and seal the Instant Pot
    • Cook on manual mode for 3 minutes then quick release and enjoy!

    What is the difference between chicken stock and chicken broth?

    Chicken stock is made from chicken bones, whereas chicken broth is made from the meat. You will find that chicken stock is a thicker liquid and chicken broth is typically thinner and has more flavor.

    Can you freeze it?

    Absolutely! The best way to freeze chicken noodle soup is to freeze it without the noodles. If you freeze the soup with the noodles, it can become soggy. So, freeze everything else besides the noodles and cook up some gluten-free noodles when you are ready to eat. It can last in the freezer for 4-6 months.

    How to store the leftovers

    Take your leftover soup and place it in an airtight container. Put in the fridge and it can last up to four days.
