Mark sent me this recipe, and I made notes on what changes I made. For example, I doubled the recipe, which fit into my crock pot so got 2 boxes chicken broth and used about 1 1/2, used skinned chicken thighs and took them out to cool before taking off the bone, then put in pasta while it cooled. This makes more like a stew than a soup as the pasta absorbs the sauce. But it is fantastic, and very easy.
