Crockpot Chicken Noodle Soup

We made this yesterday and had it for supper last night. It was delicious!!! So simple too since it was all crock pot. I'll post the original recipe and then **note what I changed to our preference.

3 large carrots - cut into 1/2 inch slices
4 celery stalks, chopped
1large onion
1/2tsp pepper
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1tbsp parsley
kosher salt or sea salt to taste
1lb of boneless, skinless chicken breast
1lb of boneless, skinless chicken thigh
3cups of low-sodium chicken broth
2cups of water
1 (9oz) package refrigerated linguine
Combine all ingredients, except linguine, in a slow cooker. Cook on low 6-8hours. One half hour before serving, remove chicken. Shred chicken into bite-sized pieces and return to pot. Cook 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

** We changed some things for our personal taste. Only used 1/4 of a medium onion, only 2 lg. skinless boneless chicken breast, "Rachael Ray" chk broth I don't know if it was low sodium or not, 12oz of dried homemade amish noodles. We cooked on high for about 6/7 hours and then added noodles and shredded chicken...then cook for about 45 more minutes stirring once in a while so noodles didn't stick to the sides.

It looked more like just noodles w/ veggies and chicken...so we decided to make some mashed potatoes and it was awesome!
If you try it let me know what you think!
