Noodle Soup!

I made soba noodles the other night for dinner and have been thinking of a way to use up the leftover noodles.  I could think of nothing better than soup.  I'm a huge soup fan, especially for a weekend lunch.  They're so easy and quick to put together.  Plus, I can use it as a way to use up leftover veggies.  I went with Asian inspired flavors today, but the nice thing about soup is you can do whatever you want!

1 qt vegetable stock (look for low sodium)
1-2 water
1 carrot, peeled and julliened
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 -2 cups fresh spinach
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
1 T ginger, minced
3 T soy sauce (use low sodium here too)
4 oz soba noodles, cooked to package directions or use leftover noodles if you have them

In a stock pot add all ingredients (except the spinach & noodles) and bring to a simmer.  Cover until veggies are tender and add the spinach.  Put noodles in bowls and ladle the broth over noodles.  






That's it!  Super easy, delicious, and satisfying.  :o)
