Place a wonton wrapper on a clean surface and add a spoonful of the filling in the center.

Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, fold it over to form a triangle, and seal the edges tightly.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and gently add the wontons, cooking until they float, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and set aside.

In the same pot, cook the noodles according to package instructions until tender, about 3-5 minutes.

Add bok choy to the broth and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.

Divide the noodles and wontons into serving bowls.

Ladle the hot broth and bok choy over the noodles and wontons.
