No need to tend to it while it is cooking! Cover and check now and then to add more water if needed. Strain the stock and discard the bones and vegetables. Do not try to use these vegetables as they will have zero taste (all the nutrients are in the stock). Return stock to stove top and add pkg of vegetables. Return to boil and add noodles and cook according to package instructions. Your house will smell wonderful and you have a tasty, nutrient dense warm meal! Enjoy!
