Ingredients

- Vegetable broth
- Mixed vegetables (e.g., peas, corn, carrots)
- Egg noodles
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions

- Remove the pot from heat and let the soup rest for 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld together and slightly cool.
- Ladle the soup into serving bowls, ensuring each portion has a good mix of chicken, vegetables, and noodles.
- Garnish each serving with freshly chopped parsley for added color and a touch of fresh herb flavor.
- Serve hot and enjoy immediately for the best taste and texture.
Tips
- • For maximum flavor, use homemade or high-quality store-bought vegetable broth • Ensure chicken is thoroughly cooked and shredded before adding to the soup • Don't overcook the egg noodles—they should be al dente to maintain the perfect texture • Feel free to customize vegetables based on what's in your refrigerator • For added richness, consider adding a splash of cream or a pat of butter • Chopping parsley just before serving ensures the freshest, most vibrant garnish • This soup keeps well in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, making it perfect for meal prep • For a gluten-free version, substitute egg noodles with rice or gluten-free pasta
