Marya's Chicken (Noodle) Soup

1. In olive oil, stir around the following on medium for about 5 minutes: 
• 3 large carrots, diced small
• 3 celery stalks, diced small
• 1 tsp. or more minced garlic
• 1/2 cup minced onion
2.  Combine the sauteed veggies with 6 cups chicken broth (I use bouillon cubes and it is good).
3. Also add, and then simmer for 15 minutes: 
• 1/4 tsp. marjoram
• 1/4 tsp. ground pepper
• sprinkle of dried bay leaves (if cut)
• 1 tsp. dried parsley
4.  Add a heaped cup of diced chicken (I just used my pre-cooked baked chicken recipe), and simmer for 5 more minutes.

 *Add noodles if desired.
