Chicken Noodle Soup

Really Great Chicken Noodle Soup  (Kristen's Recipe. thanks!) 
3 chicken breasts
8 cups water
2 cups sliced carrots
1 cup sliced celery
½ chopped onion
6-7 chicken bouillon cubes, crushed (I use Chicken Bouillon paste)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
As many spiral shaped egg noodles as you want (I use a 12-16 ounce bag)
 
Put the 8 cups of water in a big pot and bring to boil, add the chicken breast to water and boil them until cooked through.  Remove chicken from water once completely cooked and set them aside to chop.  Add the carrots, celery, onion and bouillon to pot.  Cook until tender.  While vegetables are cooking, boil noodles in a separate pot until tender then rinse and set them aside.  Once vegetables are tender, add chopped chicken, noodles, cream of chicken, and mild to pot, and heat.  Salt and pepper to taste if you would like.
