Asian Chicken Soup with Soba Noodles {Prevention 28-Day Challenge Recipe}

I am doing the Prevention 28-Day Challenge and this soup was on the meal plan for lunch today.  It was SUPER easy to whip up.  I made it this morning before breakfast. (I had baked an extra chicken breast last night.)  You can see the complete meal plan HERE.

Asian Chicken Soup

(1 serving)

2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

1/2 sup cooked soba (buckwheat) noodles (these are my favorite)

3 oz diced cooked chicken

1 Tbs thinly sliced green onions

1/2 tsp minced garlic

Cook soba noodles as directed on package.  While noodles are cooking, add everything else to a pot and warm on medium heat.  Add soba noodles and heat for another minute or until noodles are warm.  I know the recipe calls for low-sodium broth, but I needed some salt.  So season to taste with salt and pepper.  

This soup was so yummy and light.  I had half and apple for desert and some hot green tea with it.  We are having another cold snap of weather (from 80 down to 50) so this warm soup was just what I needed.

Thanks for stopping by,

{Campbell's Slow Kettle Style Soup} A Review

I am a member of smiley360.  It's a site where you share your opinions of brands and receive samples to review.  The more you share, the more you get to review.  Recently I was given a sample of Campbell's Slow Kettle Style Soup in Tomato & Sweet Basil Bisque with Fresh Cream and Ground Red Pepper.

I love tomato and basil soups. This one did not disappoint. Let me say up front that this is not a diet soup.  It is made with real cream and has 14 g fat per serving.  There are two servings in a container and I ate almost the whole container in one sitting.  I guess I will be eating salads for the rest of the day.

There was a nice bold tomato taste, subtle on the basil and ground red pepper.  If you are sensitive to spicy foods, this soup will not cause you any concern.  There are chunks of tomato, which I love and a lovely creamy taste.  It is a soup that I would definitely try again.

I received $2.00 coupons which I passed out to family, friends and co-workers.  I also placed a couple by the soup as a suprise to shoppers.  I used one to purchase the Kick'n Crab and Sweet Corn Chowder with Flame Roasted Onions and Cayenne Pepper.  It was pretty good, but had a fishy smell that put me off a little.  Despite that, I am looking forward to trying some of the other favors, especially the Portobello Mushroom and Medeira Bisque with Shallots, Thyme and Sage and the Braised Beef Stew with Baby Bella Mushrooms , Roasted Potatoes and Burgundy Wine.
