- Heat the mixture on medium high heat, bringing the soup to a rolling boil. Immediately reduce the heat to medium low.
- Stirring occasionally, let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Add in the noodles, stirring to get them into the soup as they soften, and stir in the cheese.1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 8 oz thin spaghetti
- Let the soup continue cooking just until the noodles are al dente, making sure to stir them often enough that they don't stick or clump together.
- If the soup's too thick for your liking, use the remaining cup of broth to thin it out some.
- Remove the pot from heat, and serve the soup immediately.
Notes
- The soup will thicken as it sits.
- Want to make for neater eating? You can break the noodles into halves or thirds before adding them to the pot. If you do break up the pasta, just know that this may make it cook quicker.
- To avoid over cooking the pasta, make sure to remove the soup from the heat as soon as the pasta is al dente. It will continue to cook from the residual heat.
- Serve the soup as is or garnish it with extra crisp bacon crumbles, more sharp cheddar, and even some fresh parsley.
