4 cups vegetable broth**

• This recipe makes either four 8-ounce jars or two 16-ounce jars. Gather the jars you are using and place on the counter.
• Place the ramen bricks in a plastic bag and seal. Use a wooden spoon or wooden mallet to hammer them and break them up.
• Divide the ramen, bok choy, scallions, parsley and mushrooms between the jars.
• In a small bowl, combine the seasoning ingredients. Divide the seasoning into each jar.
• In a medium pot, heat the vegetable broth. Once the broth comes to a rolling boil, remove from heat and pour it into each jar.   Allow the jars to sit for 5-6 minutes and then serve.
• Enjoy!

*You can use regular ramen noodles or rice ramen.  They even make rice vermicelli.  If you prefer your noodles well cooked, you will want to precook them before you assemble the cups.

**You can use store bought vegetable broth or make your own using this recipe: Slow Cooker Vegetable Broth and Easy Veggie Soup – Blooming Glen Farm
