Hot Udon Noodles in Broth

George and I have colds so we don't feel like doing much, and I'm a vegetarian, so I'm completely uninterested in chicken noodle soup. But I still felt like hot noodles in soup just as long as I didn't have to do anything except sleep until they were ready. George cooked me fat, hot, chewy udon noodles in a little bit of broth, and it felt like Heaven. George made up this recipe himself with stuff we had in our pantry. All Japanese noodles including udon have wheat in them, so people with Celiac disease should avoid this meal. You can basically find frozen udon noodles in almost any Asian market in the U.S., in my experience.
