Quick and easy to make, each serving is just 232 calories with an impressive 25g of protein \u2013 perfect for a low-calorie lunch, post-workout snack, or paired with fresh bread and butter for a filling dinner.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve used carrots, spinach, corn, and spices to create a vibrant dish that\u2019s as healthy as it is flavorful. For the protein, we\u2019ve gone for chicken breast as it is low in fat and high in protein, and we\u2019ve used wholewheat noodles to increase the fiber and nutrient content. A high fiber diet improves digestion, increases satiety, and lowers the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and bowel cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Each serving of our chicken noodle soup costs just $1.12 to make, with a total recipe cost of $4.49 for four people, and it takes just 10 minutes to prep \u2013 simply leave to cook away on the stove for 30 minutes and then you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Serves:<\/strong> 4<br \/>\n<strong>Prep time:<\/strong> 10 mins<br \/>\n<strong>Cook time:<\/strong> 30 mins[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1789722353257{margin-right: 10px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Ingredients<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>2 chicken breasts<\/li>\n<li>2 garlic cloves, crushed<\/li>\n<li>4\u00bc cups chicken broth<\/li>\n<li>3.5 oz whole wheat noodles<\/li>\n<li>2 carrots, finely diced<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd tsp turmeric<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd tsp red chili flakes<\/li>\n<li>3.5 oz spinach<\/li>\n<li>1.75 oz canned corn, drained<\/li>\n<li>Low calorie cooking spray<\/li>\n<li>Salt<\/li>\n<li>Freshly ground black pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Method<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li class=\"li1\">Start by adding the chicken and garlic to a deep pan and pour over the <span class=\"s1\">chicken broth<\/span>.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and leave to cook for 20 minutes until the chicken is tender.<\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\">Now remove the chicken and shred it using two forks.
