Ingredients: 1 ounce uncooked thin spaghetti, broken into 1-inch pieces; 3 cups plus 1 tablespoon water, divided; 3 teaspoons reduced-sodium chicken bouillon granules; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms; 1/2 cup fresh or frozen corn; 1 teaspoon cornstarch; 1-1/2 teaspoons reduced-sodium teriyaki sauce; 1 cup thinly sliced romaine lettuce; 1 can (6 ounces) small shrimp, rinsed and drained; 2 tablespoons sliced green onion

"I love this soup so much, I sometimes double the recipe," notes Michelle Smith from Sykesville, Maryland. "In fact, I've nicknamed it the 'House Specialty'! If I have leftover chicken or pork, I sometimes substitute it for the shrimp."

1 ounce uncooked thin spaghetti, broken into 1-inch pieces
3 cups plus 1 tablespoon water, divided
3 teaspoons reduced-sodium chicken bouillon granules

Great recipe! Will definitely make it again. I didn't have cornstarch so used flour in place of it. Didn't have teriyaki sauce either and used soy sauce.
