Not great, but if you are in a financial pinch it will do.

Made this recipe many times. Adjusted it for additional servings and added extra noodles and cheese. Sometimes add cubed ham. Kids love it.

Oh my, not often do I throw something out, but I had to with this. I even added more liquid, but by the time it sat for a few min. all the liquid was gone and it was mush with NO flavor.

A little runny for my tastes, but it is really easy to make.

I've made this a number of times and used different vegetables each time. It's always delicious and my family loves it. I triple the recipe to feed my large family and it's still very inexpensive!

Easy and tasty. When I made it the color of the broccoli bled into the soup and made it look less appetizing. My daughter who doesn't cook much wanted me to find the recipe so she can make it.

Liked. Easy and good. I used cream of chicken ramen noodle soup and added grilled unseasoned chicken cut up and the broccoli cuts.
