Sopa de fideo is a comforting and beloved Mexican noodle soup that holds a special place in my heart. Growing up, it was the dish that brought me so much comfort any time I was sick. It's made with thin, toasted vermicelli noodles (fideo) simmered in a rich, tomato-based broth, and seasonings. My favorite part of the recipe is interchanging the noodles to letters, fun shapes, or any gluten-free noodle! I like to add lime, mayo, or sour cream as a garnish to really bring the dish together. Provecho amigos!

Notes

Please note: I used alphabet letter noodles for my recipe photos - fideo noodles look like this >> if you’re gluten free, you can use ANY gluten-free noodle. I love using small gf macaroni noodles.
