Method

  1. Bring the chicken broth to a gentle boil in a medium pot.
  2. Add the diced carrot and onion; simmer 5 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Stir in the broken egg noodles and cook according to package timing, usually 6‑7 minutes.
  4. Add the ham strips and spinach; cook another 2 minutes until the spinach wilts.
  5. Season with salt and pepper, then ladle into bowls.
  6. Serve hot, letting the steam whisper cozy secrets.

Taste the broth before finishing—adjust seasoning now, because once the noodles soak up the liquid, it’s harder to correct.

Pairs beautifully with Play a mellow jazz sax solo on repeat while spooning; the soup will sing along.
