Instructions

Heat up a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat, then swirl just enough olive oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pot. Add ginger and garlic, and sauté for about a minute.
Add carrots, celery, and turmeric, and sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until carrot and celery is tender. Add broth and bring to simmer, then add the noodles and cook just until the noodles are al dente (check package directions for cooking time.)
Add chicken and cilantro and cook just until everything is warmed through, then divide into bowls and top with cilantro, lime wedges, sliced red chili, and avocado. Eat!
