This vegetarian Asian Noodle Soup is absolutely delicious. When you are craving for a hot soup after a tiring work day, this soup will not disappoint you.
The other day I was coming home from catering and was craving for soup.
Vegetarian Asian noodle soup to be exact.
And since E (one of my catering partners) had just given me some bok choy to try, which I had never cooked with before, I figured it would make a great addition to the soup.
I really needed this to be delicious.
But when the broth came to a boil I started to have my doubts.
I didn’t have any home made broth so had to go with the carton kind and I was starting to think that it would just ruin the flavor of the whole batch. Thankfully, I couldn’t have been more wrong.
This Asian noodle soup itself was absolutely delicious – exactly what I was looking for. And when I say that I mean I literally couldn’t control myself and ate the entire pot in one sitting.ย And plan on doing so again as soon as I get my hands on more bok choy – which by the way is my new favorite vegetable.
I mean one person is not supposed to have so much tamari or fish sauce in one day but I literally could not help myself. I needed to eat the whole pot of soup, and honestly could not have been happier that D was away on business and therefore I did not have to share. I know, shame on me, but it’s the truth! I did NOT want to share this Asian noodle soup! So if planning on sharing, make a double batch!
If you love bok choy too be sure to try my other boy choy recipes such as: bok choy mushroom stir fry with tofu, and sauteed baby bok choy.

Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the images on this blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Good day! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could locate a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having difficulty finding one? Thanks a lot!
AvocadoPesto says
No idea about the captcha plugin – sorry I couldn’t be more helpful!

Appreciate for the insightful blog update. I was attempting to subscribe to your RSS feed, but I couldn’t seem to get it working with my RSS reader. Is there a problem, or is it my fault (I’m a bit of a technophobe!)?
AvocadoPesto says
Not sure – I think it should be working though.

Thank you, the recipe seems wonderful and most of the ingredients seem fairly easy to find (unlike most Asian soup recipes I’ve seen). Do you think I could replace the bok choy with kale or even spinach or something else?
Vicky says
Thanks! Yes definitely feel free to replace the bok choy with another other green vegetable. I think spinach or broccoli would be good!
Rachel says
I would love to try making this!
