Quick Asian Beef, Vegetable & Noodle Soup

Submitted by CindyMarie

"This is a flavorful soup that is quick and easy to put together. It is from the Iowa Beef Industry Council. The recipe originally called for using two seasoning packets from the ramen noodles, but we thought it was too strong and salty, I recommend using one to start then adding more to taste."

Quick easy and delicious. I followed the recipe only cutting the recipe in half for DH and I and we totally enjoyed the soup. Next time I might blanch a few vegetables to try for the frozen but this is an easy dish. Made for Fall Pick a Chef 2011.
