  3. Cook the noodles and wilt the spinach. Add the broken noodles and simmer for the time on the package, stirring often so they do not stick, until tender. Stir in the spinach for 1 to 2 minutes until it wilts. Ladle into bowls and top each with 2 tablespoons of cottage cheese.

Notes

  • The noodles keep absorbing broth, so the soup thickens as it sits. Add a splash of broth when you reheat it.
  • For less salt, use low-sodium broth and taste before adding the 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
