Notes

Step-by-Step Photos: My blog post includes helpful step-by-step photos to help guide you through making this recipe.
Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.
To Store: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in a pot/pan over a low heat until piping hot or in the microwave. 
To Freeze: It is best to freeze before adding the noodles. When ready to eat, thaw, heat the soup, and add the noodles to cook.
Tip 1: This soup is incredibly versatile. Try trading out your favourite vegetable or trying something new!
Tip 2: If you love spicy dishes, you could add in chilli flakes to heat it up.
Tip 3: You can add beef, pork, duck, fish, shredded chicken, prawns, etc. into this recipe if you aren’t vegan or vegetarian. If you are vegan/vegetarian you could add tofu if you wished. Cook the meat or tofu separately and add it in at the end.
