Perfect soup for a cold, rainy Sunday in Seattle. I used a 32 oz. box of chicken stock and 2 cups of water for the broth. I also increased the carrot and spinach since I omitted the bell pepper. (I'm not a fan of them cooked.) Two tablespoons of chili garlic sauce gave this soup the kick we were looking for. Thanks for sharing! ***Made for Fall PAC 2012***

This was really good! I used some leftover pork ribs that I cooked in the crockpot yesterday. I didn't have any fresh ginger, so I just used a shake or two of ground ginger. I tasted the broth after the first step and it was awesome! The addition of the other ingredients (red pepper, carrot, noodles) kinda changed the flavor for me so it wasn't as good as at first, so next time I will probably cook the noodles separately, and stir fry the carrot and pepper separately and then just add it all back to the broth at the end so the veggies will be a little bit crunchy. I used ramen noodles cause that's what I had --but next time I either won't use ramen or else I will cook them separately and drain so the starch comes off and doesn't soak up all the broth or make it too thick. I also used frozen broccoli instead of spinach, and I thought that was perfect.
