You need less than half an hour to get this soup ready to go, but it tastes like you've been at the stovetop for hours. It's substantial enough as a hearty dinner thanks to the inclusion of whole-wheat pasta, lots of shiitake mushrooms, and thin strips of pork tenderloin. The soup also features a colorful medley of Napa cabbage, scallions, tomatoes, and green peas. If you feel like mixing things up a little bit, thinly slice, on a diagonal, 1 cup of snow peas and add to the soup in step 2. Add as much or as little hot pepper sauce as you'd like depending on your heat tolerance.
