While the chicken is browning prepare the soup. Empty all five cans into a large (trust me!!!!) pot. Add FOUR cans of water or milk - depending on the instructions for the brand of soup you are using. Do NOT add the fifth can - the broth will then get too watery. Next, these soups need some, well, help.... Add a little garlic powder, some onion powder or dried onion flakes and salt & pepper. Trust me here.... I NEVER cook with salt - but it needs it. Put a little more pepper than you think would be right. Add the veggies and let it sit on medium heat.
At some point here, you'll need to put a pot of water on high heat. You're going to let this boil so you can cook the noodles in it... it isn't a big rush, so don't worry if you don't get them cooked right away.
When the soup is about to boil (but before it does) turn the heat down to low and add the chicken (that should certainly be done cooking by now). You want to let this cook for a little while. When the noodles are done cooking, drain them and add them into the pot. If you have to cook the noodles in two batches, that's ok. Let it cook until everything is completely hot. The broth should be at the stage where it bubbles slightly, but you don't want a heavy boil.
Serve as is, with rolls or bread and butter! Enjoy!!
