Haute Comfort Food – Take it up a notch with Chicken Noodle Soup!
Chicken Noodle soup – who doesn’t love it?
When under the weather, there’s nothing like snuggling up with a nice warm bowl of chicken noodle soup. For years, people have turned to the soup as a remedy to treat the common cold. According to WebMD, chicken noodle soup can help alleviate inflammation. The steam from a hot bowl of soup also helps open nasal passages. Although tests have been unable to prove that the soup has the ability to cure the common cold, it makes you feel good in the process.
The power of this soup lies in its ingredients. Depending on the vegetables used, they can provide many vitamins and nutrients. The broth itself can soothe a sore throat, while the carbohydrates in the noodles give the body energy to fight off illness. The best thing about the soup is not only does it make you feel good, it tastes good.
We have taken the traditional recipe up a notch by adding truffle salt and big egg-free noodles. Give it a try – sooo good!
