You’ll feel completely satisfied and healthy after eating this Green Bowl, a perfect transition from Winter to Spring!
Like most home cooks, I strive to put a variety of healthy, delicious meals on the table for my family. I love to introduce new foods and create new recipe combinations and come up with an eye-catching way to serve it because we all eat with our eyes first right? When I was accepted into the JSL Foods challenge to come up with a unique way to create a soup using their Udon noodles, I was more than excited. I use their Ramen and Udon noodles often as a simple tofu and ramen soup and with a few simple additions, I have a flavorful soup on the table in a matter of minutes. I created a dish for each of the JSL Foods Udon flavors (Chicken, Mushroom(Vegan) and Shoyou); however, this dish stood out and was enjoyed as a unique and delicious combination of fresh greens and hot broth which was also simple to make and adaptable to house a variety of vegetables, not only the ones I used. Fast, fresh, healthy and delicious ! I hope you enjoy this healthy green bowl as much as we did.
