Here’s a kid-friendly recipe for Chicken Ramen Soup that’s easy to make and delicious!

Ingredients:
– 2 cups of chicken broth (low sodium)
– 1 cup of water
– 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 1/2 pound)
– 2 packs of instant ramen noodles (discard the seasoning packets)
– 1 cup of mixed vegetables (like carrots, peas, and corn)
– 2 green onions, chopped (optional)
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional, adjust to taste)
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon ginger powder (optional)

– Soft-boiled eggs (optional, for topping)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Chicken:
   – In a medium pot, combine the chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil.
   – Add the chicken breast to the pot. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
   – Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

2. Prepare the Soup:
   – In the same pot with the broth, add the mixed vegetables, garlic powder, ginger powder, and soy sauce (if using). Bring it back to a gentle boil.
   – Add the ramen noodles to the pot and cook according to the package instructions (usually about 3-4 minutes).

3. Combine:
   – Once the noodles are cooked, add the shredded chicken back into the pot. Stir everything together and let it heat through for another minute.
   – Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed.

4. Serve:
   – Ladle the soup into bowls. If desired, top with chopped green onions and a soft-boiled egg.
   – Let it cool slightly before serving to your kids.

Tips:
– You can customize the vegetables based on what your kids like. Broccoli, bell peppers, or spinach are great options!
