Notes
For enhanced flavor, sauté the vegetables before adding them to the broth.
Using homemade broth adds a richer taste to the soup.
Experiment with different noodles, such as whole wheat or gluten-free options.
The soup can be frozen; just separate the noodles and add them fresh when reheating.
A sprinkle of Parmesan cheese or a dash of red pepper flakes can elevate the presentation and flavor.
