This is a complete nutritious comfort food meal in a bowl albeit way too bland. Suggest serving it with a dash of hot sauce!
Hi Kalyani! Serving with hot sauce sounds like a good idea!!
Yum!! Any suggestions on the best gluten free noodle to use with this recipe? I’m tempted to make it as directed but then I can’t enjoy it bc I have celiac. Do you think vermicelli would work? Thanks!
Hi Michelle! Yes any of your favorite gluten free noodles or pasta will work perfectly. Rice vermicelli will work too! Let m know if you have any other questions ?
Hi Archana – when you say 4 cup chicken broth better than bouillon chicken broth base, do you mean mix the bouillon chicken broth base with water? How much base and how much water? Thanks! sounds yummy.
Hi! To make 1 cup of broth with better than bouillon, you mix 1 teaspoon of of the broth base to 1 cup of water. So you need 4 teaspoon of base and 4 cups of water. Let me know how you like this soup!
