Simple Noodles
Store bought noodles while delicious and convenient contain a multitude of questionable ingredients including flavour enhancers, thickeners, artificial flavours and multiple forms of MSG. This recipe is equally as delicious and convenient without all the nasties. In fact, it’s so easy your kids can make it themselves!! Adding fat and the protein from bone broth will keep them fuller for longer.
