Outstanding! We used button mushrooms, bite-sized egg noodles, and clam juice. Leftovers were delicious too. If you have homemade broth, it adds so much flavor. Would also be good with broccoli in place of the bok choy.

I actually found this recipe on FoodTV.com, but upon checking, found it posted here. Great! This is my preferred site, so I'm glad it's already here. I made this with fine rice sticks instead of vermicelli, used fish sauce instead of salt (but added a good amount of sea salt at the end), and added a drizzle of toasted sesame oil. Also instead of 1 quart of chicken broth and 1 cup of seafood stock, I used 3 cups homemade shrimp broth and 2 cups chicken broth. Delicious! My husband said, "you can make this soup anytime."

Delish! The only change I made was adding one fresh carrot sliced in match stick shape for color and sweetness. Also made the shrimp stock from the shells. Oh so good. Will make again.

My MIL made this, but she used wonton noodles and made it more of a soup! She used the clam juice because she couldn't find the seafood stock! I loved it!!
