Variations & Tips
For a twist, you can add a can of drained kidney beans or corn to the soup for extra texture and nutrition. Swap out the ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version. If you’re gluten-free, substitute the egg noodles with gluten-free pasta. Additionally, you can add a dash of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce for a deeper umami flavor.
