Ingredients
  

Noodles and Broth
  • 4 cups Quality chicken or vegetable broth Homemade broth is ideal but store-bought works in a pinch.
  • 8 ounces Fresh ramen noodles Dried alternatives work well too.
Vegetables
  • 1 cup Chopped carrots
  • 1 cup Chopped zucchinis
  • 1 cup Chopped bell peppers Feel free to use whatever fresh or frozen vegetables you have available.
Seasonings
  • 1 teaspoon Dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
Protein
  • 1 cup Shredded chicken or sliced Italian sausage For a vegetarian option, use chickpeas.
Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan or Pecorino Romano Sprinkle over the top before serving.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, add your broth and bring it to a simmer over medium heat.
  2. Add your chopped carrots, zucchinis, and bell peppers into the pot. Stir well and allow them to cook for about 5 minutes until they soften slightly.
  3. Once the vegetables have softened, add your ramen noodles to the pot. Cook them according to package instructions, usually around 3-4 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle in the dried basil, oregano, and thyme. Stir these in well.
  5. If using shredded chicken or sausage, add it now and let it mingle in the pot for about 5 minutes. If using chickpeas, let them heat through.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, and let the flavors meld for an additional few minutes.
  7. Remove the pot from heat, ladle the soup into bowls, and finish with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.

Notes

This soup keeps well in the fridge for up to three days. Store it in airtight containers to maintain its fresh flavors. Avoid using overcooked noodles to keep their texture.
