How to Make Amish Snow Day Soup

Heat a large pot over medium heat and add a drizzle of oil. Toss in the chopped onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened, which should take about 5 minutes.
Stir in the diced or crushed tomatoes along with your choice of beef or vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Add your cubed potatoes to the pot. Season with a sprinkle of salt, and let everything simmer for about 15 minutes or until your potatoes are tender.
Mix in the corn and uncooked egg noodles, stirring well. Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes until the noodles are tender.
If you’re using heavy cream, gently stir it into the pot now. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve steaming hot!
