Divide evenly and layer the carrots, bell peppers, and green onions in each jar. Then, divide and add the noodles evenly between each jar. Close the jars with the lid and chill in the fridge until ready to eat. If you prefer to eat it immediately, skip the 10-15 minutes in the step below!

Take the jar out of the fridge about 10-15 minutes before eating and let it sit at room temperature. Then, pour about 2 cups of boiling chicken broth into each jar, or just enough to fill each. Do not skip these 10-15 minutes or your chilled ajr may bread when you pour in the boiling broth.

Carefully stir the contents, close the jar with the lid, let it sit for about 3-5 minutes, and enjoy garnished with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro! Be aware you may need to microwave the jar for 1-2 minutes depending on the type of vermicelli noodles you used because some varieties are harder than others.
