Sopa de Fideo
Quick, simple and delicious sopa de fideo (a Mexican noodle soup) is the ultimate easy Mexican comfort food made with pantry friendly ingredients in less than 30 minutes! Fideo is a robust, savory soup made with thin fideo pasta (like short vermicelli), simmered in a robust, rich, smoky, tomato-based broth dressed with cilantro and lime juice. You can keep the fideo recipe extremely simple or use it as a springboard for any add-ins such as corn, zucchini, leftover rotisserie chicken, etc. Dress up your big bowl of comforting, hearty fideo with crumbled cotija, Mexican crema and jalapenos and you have a quick Mexican soup that you will make again and again!
