Chicken noodle soup is a staple dish in many cultures, and often seen as a comfort food during colder months or flu season.

We wanted to make chicken noodle soup a more viable option for any day or season, and our recipe does just that. Quick and easy to make, each serving is just 232 calories with an impressive 25g of protein – perfect for a low-calorie lunch, post-workout snack, or paired with fresh bread and butter for a filling dinner.

We’ve used carrots, spinach, sweetcorn, and spices to create a vibrant dish that’s as healthy as it is flavoursome. For the protein, we’ve gone for chicken breast as it is low in fat and high in protein, and we’ve used wholewheat noodles to increase the fibre and nutrient content. A high fibre diet improves digestion, increases satiety, and lowers the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and bowel cancer.

Each serving of our chicken noodle soup costs just CHF 0.95 to create, with a total recipe cost of CHF 3.80 for four people, and it takes just 10 minutes to prep – simply leave to cook away on the stove for 30 minutes and then you’re done.
