Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle Soup

This Thai inspired Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle Soup is a marvelously delicious way to warm up on a chilly evening. It’s a mouthwatering dinner the whole family will enjoy. Healthy, tasty, and simple.

This morning was one of those rare mornings when I actually got up early and spent a good amount of quiet time before hitting the ground running.

Usually, I growl silently at my alarm clock, snooze it to the very last nanosecond before the day takes over.

So it was awesome to actually sit down with my morning decaf (yep) and quietly read and journal.

Journaling has been so hit and miss for my adult life. I have one for myself which I sometimes scribble in. Then I have one for each of The Littles where I attempt to write more legibly and thoughtfully. Sadly, it’s been embarrassingly too long since my last journal entry for the boys. Like, they’ve each grown a head taller since the last note.

But hey, today’s a new day. And I love jotting down the precious things about each Little. Things that make me laugh, smile, and things I don’t ever want to forget.

The dailies of life have a habit of getting in our way, and I just want to record and take snapshots of allthethings. Thoughts, words, actions… the sweet mundanes that become fond memories.

But I don’t walk around with a videocam on my forehead all day, and busy is my middle name in this season of life. So I don’t record allthethings.

If chronicling recipes counts even a little bit…

…if baking and cooking and feeding said Littles on a daily basis count for something?

I don’t record every funny sentence that comes out of their mouths, but I’ll document all the good eats that went in.

That’s gotta be worth a little something, said the food bloggin’ mama.

Now, off the nostalgic and onto food.  It’s what you came here for, so here we go…

Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle Soup. Chewy, toothsome, thick rice noodles. We’re off to a ravishing start.

I grew up on all sorts of noodles, and rice noodles were one of my childhood faves. It has a beautifully chewy bite and works wonders in flavorful broths.

And about this broth. It’s superbly flavorful, infused with the goodness of coconut milk and fragrant curry. This broth is light, savory, and slurp-worthy.

We add in our gorgeous greens: fresh spinach leaves, snow peas, green onions, and cilantro.

For the chicken, you could either cook up chicken breasts and shred them, or simply use rotisserie chicken from the store. That’s my preference, as it’s healthy and tastes great.

Add some aromatic spices and splashes of fresh lime and you’re eating happy.

The whole family enjoys this Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle Soup. The Littles have a particular fondness for the sleek wide noodles.

This meal comes together quickly once you’ve gathered all the ingredients.

Healthy, nutritious, and chock full of flavor…we hope this will become a family favorite for you, as it has for us.

Enjoy!
