Lemongrass and Lime Thai Noodle Soup image

A filling Thai noodle soup with tons of flavor. The leftovers are even better cold the next day! You can add meat instead of tofu, make it vegetarian by using vegetable broth, or change up the veggies with whatever you have on hand.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this soup wasn't too spicy for me. It had just the right amount of heat.
