Everything this Ginger-Scallion Broth with Noodles is: simple, delicious, easy, light, healthy. Everything bad about it: it’s hard to stop yourself from pouring the broth from the bowl into your mouth!

INSTRUCTIONS for Ginger-Scallion Broth with Noodles
- Put water and bouillon cubes in a large pot. Bring to boil. (If you’re not about bouillon cubes, you can easily swap for 8 cups of vegetable or chicken or beef stock and then omit water. You can learn how to make your own vegetable stock from scraps here)
- While the stock is coming to a boil, cut the scallions, separating the white and green parts. For the white part, cut in half lengthwise, whereas for the green parts, thinly slice as this will be for plating!
- Once stock is at a boil, bring down to a simmer and add the white parts of the scallions, the ginger, and 1 TSP. salt. If you are using stock from the store, make sure to taste it before adding salt, they sometimes can be quite high in sodium.
- Put the lid on and simmer the stock for 15-minutes.
- While stock is simmering, cook noodles according to directions on packaging.
- Once noodles are cooked through, drain and rinse with cold water to stop them from cooking further.
- Place noodles in the bottom of your soup bowl.
- Add bok choy to your broth and stir gently. Continue to simmer for 2-3 minutes, just until the bok choy becomes a bright green.
- Ladle your broth and bok choy over the noodles.
- Top the Ginger-Scallion Broth with Noodles with cilantro, squeeze a lime over, and enjoy!
