Thai Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe
I was shocked at how much my family loved this recipe, but they (almost!) all gobbled it down. Our youngest Reagan wasn’t quite up for it, but the rest of the family all ate a huge bowl and asked for more. It’s the perfect comfort food that’s good for you too, and is so simple to make. And it has fewer than 300 calories and 13 net carbs. I love that!
If you don’t mind a few extra carbs (or are trying to please some extra picky eaters who might want more than just soup), add a side salad and some Cheesy Flatbread from our Sides Dish Menu Plans and you’ve got the perfect meal!
MENU TIP: This Thai chicken noodle soup recipe is from week 1 of our low calorie menu planning made easy set!

Is the red pepper a spicy pepper or a bell pepper??
It’s a bell pepper! 🙂
Made this for dinner tonight and it was truly delicious. Simple and tasty recipe!
Yay, I’m so glad you loved it! 🙂
I can’t wait to give this a try! Can I substitute curry powder for curry paste?
Yay, I hope you love it Andrea! From the research I did, it says you can use it but the taste and texture could be significantly different. Let us know what works best for you. 🙂
Yes, mix 1 tablespoon curry powder, 1tablespoon water, and 1 tablespoon of oil. Mix well.
I am excited to try this! I love all things Thai.
Yay! Let us know how it turns out!
