Today I will share one of my new lunch secrets...Its quickly becoming a new favorite of mine. Chicken noodle soup with extra chicken. Its super easy especially if you have some time. I need to load up on the proteins for my new leaner lifestyle and this does the trick but its also an old favorite comfort food. I cook some chicken thighs in a little water in my soup pot (4-6 thighs). I cook the chicken low and slow and when I start to smell the chicken I take it out and chop it up into thin chunks. I return the chicken to the water its been cooking in add 1 can of Campbell's chicken noodle soup (its improved a lot over the last few years) I rinse the can and add the water to the pot (only about 1/2 a can more water). Stir and heat again until it boils and starts to smell again. I can smell it right now...yum yum yum. The soup is so full of chicken that you don't need crackers. I eat half right away and save half for the next days lunch. This is a really great high protein very satisfying lunch. Gotta go my soup is ready:)
TTFN
P.S. I eat 3/8 of a cup of cottage cheese 15 mins before lunch. More protien, helps me feel full and eat lunch slowly.
