 Keeping a list so I remember what I did and when this year... Two days before first seder: Boil eggs Make overnight chicken broth in the slow cooker & defrost frozen broth Chop soup veggies Day before first seder:  Make matzah balls & refrigerate overnight Make charoset Start cake layers -- SK's lighter than air chocolate cake Day of first seder: Assemble cake & make frosting Assemble seder plate Set table etc. Day of second seder: Make cheesecake (needs 6+ hours to cool) Roast chicken Roast potatoes      

chicken noodle soup in the IP or slow cooker

Cobbled together from several different recipes. I don't like garlic or oregano in my chicken soup; I have strong feelings about when the noodles should be cooked (afterward, not with the rest of the soup, but in the same pot); add most of the salt at the end; dear god don't put POTATOES in here wtf is wrong with you. Ingredients: 2 T butter 1 large onion, chopped  4 carrots, chopped into bite-sized pieces 4 stalks celery, chopped into bite-sized pieces 1 3-4 lb chicken or chicken parts, with bones, at least one breast Chicken stock or Better than Bouillon (or similar) About half a bag of egg noodles Herbs:  Big shake of dried thyme and/or dried rosemary 1 T dried dill (optional) 1 T turmeric (optional; I do this if we're sick; choose either this OR the dill) Salt & pepper To finish: Half a lemon Sprinkle of chopped parsley Turn the IP on saute. Melt the butter and saute the onions for a minute or two.  Add celery and herbs, and a little salt and pepper. Keep stirring u
