- Instant Pot: Using an instant pot is really simple and it makes the soup more flavorful
- Pressure Cooker: If you prefer to not use the pressure cooker step of this recipe, put the ingredients on the stovetop and cook for 15 minutes and then add the pasta
- Slow Cooker: If you would like to use the slow cooker just put all the ingredients in except the pasta. Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours, or until carrots are tender. Add pasta and cook 10-20 minutes longer on high until pasta is al dente.
- Noodles: If you want to serve the noodles on the side, just use only 4 cups of stock in the soup and cook the noodles separately
- Leftovers: If you have leftover soup you can refrigerate it in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days if it is stored properly. Simply reheat when you are ready to finish this delicious soup.
