Ingredients

Instructions

  • Dice the onions and tomatoes. Press or mince the garlic.
  • Pour the olive oil into a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions to the pan and sauté them until they are slightly translucent (1-2 minutes).
  • Add the garlic and uncooked fideo noodles to the pan. Stir frequently as the pasta starts to brown (3 minutes).
  • Stir in the vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and seasoning. Lower the heat to medium and cover the pan. Stir the soup occasionally as it cooks for 15-20 minutes.
  • The fideo is ready when the noodles have softened. Garnish the soup with optional fresh cilantro, raw onions, and lime juice.

Notes

  • Add less salt if your tomato sauce and broth are not low-sodium.
  • Use thin spaghetti or vermicelli if you can't find fideo at the store. Break it up into 1-inch pieces before you sauté it
