My mom would make us this delicious soup every Sunday night after church as a special treat for us kids. We would eagerly await her arrival home from church so we could gather around the dinner table to enjoy her famous Pho recipe! Even though we may not be able to gather around our dinner table as often as we used to due to our hectic schedules these days, I still enjoy making this easy Pho recipe as a way to reconnect with my roots while creating lasting memories around our dinner table that my kids will cherish for years to come.
