Notes

For variations, try using chuck roast or stew meat instead of beef ribs. You can also substitute chicken broth for a lighter flavor or omit cinnamon for a more savory soup. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge, or freeze portions for up to 3 months. When reheating, taste and adjust seasoning as necessary. Enjoy garnishing with fresh herbs for a pop of color!
