(basically a chicken noodle soup) This is a soup I just throw together. This is an approximation of the process. It started out as an adaptation of a ramen noodle soup variation. 6 cups chicken broth (or 3 cans chicken broth) 2 cups water 3 medium onions 6-8 garlic cloves (or to your personal taste) 2-3 small carrots Bok choy (4-5 stalks, white and green parts) 1 4-ounce can water chestnuts (drained, or not) 2 12-ounce cans of white chicken meat (or 2 - 3 cups cooked, chopped chicken) Seasonings: I may add soy sauce or seasoning from a ramen package (too salty), or dried herbs such as a mix of parsley, sage, summer savory, rosemary (1-2 tsp. total) Noodles: 2 packages ramen noodles or equivalent in other types of noodles Heat liquid to boiling, lower heat to keep at a low boil. (I chop vegetables and add to the broth while it heats up.) Chop onions and garlic. Add chopped onions and garlic directly into the simmering liquid. Chop carrots. Add to simmering soup. Add canned chicken and water chestnuts to soup. Chop bok choy. Add white portion of bok choy (only) and noodles to liquid. Also add seasoning. Cook another 10-15 minutes. Just before serving, add chopped green bokchoy, cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
