Pour in the beef broth and diced tomatoes (with juices). Stir in Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Add the Noodles
Stir in the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions (usually 7-9 minutes), until tender.
Optional Additions
If using frozen peas, add them in the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to heat through.
Taste and Adjust
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper, if necessary.
