Fat Burning Spicy Thai Noodle Soup


 
It's soup time people! 

My Fat Burning Cabbage Soup is so popular I decided I would create a new Fat Burning Soup!


I love Thai food, the taste, flavors, spice, it's just pleasure in a bowl people.

I decided that I could create a spicy, veggie based soup and kick it up with the addition of Thai rice noodles. 

I used fresh noodles, but if you decide to use dry, please follow package directions on how to properly cook the noodles.


Yes, it's spicy, hence the fat burning properties. 

Not only is this soup virtually fat free, it's loaded with veggies and spicy goodness! 

Note, if you can't handle the heat, omit the Serrano or at least remove the seeds. 


As you can see I left the seeds.

And by golly, this soup was HOT! I mean Thai Hot number 8, yes, that spicy!


Don't hesitate to add more broth if you feel you needs to reduce the spiciness of the soup or a little sugar. 

I like it hot, I felt like fat was melting away as I was eating it.

Not sure if it was really fat, but it sure was a lot of sweat dripping off my face. 


This soup is all that and more, you get to burn fat, eat a filling fat free soup and it's Thai hot!



Enjoy.

  3. This sounds delicious and I'm so excited to try it! I've been looking for a good spicy soup recipe for far too long. Just one question: when you say "red salsa" is that just like any chip & dip type of red salsa I would find in a store, or something different?

  4. I almost never comment on a recipe, but this one hit it out of the ballpark. This was the best soup I have ever had. I added an extra serrano to make it extra spicy.. This is perfection in a bowl.

    1. Hello Kay red salsa is a mixture of tomatoes, onion, jalapeno and lime juice with a little cilantro. If I don't make my salsa from scratch I use organic red salsa like Newman's Own or the Herdez brand of salsa.

    1. Hi Kendra, I lost weight eating soup. I lost 40 lbs. I was eating oatmeal for breakfast, soup and salad for lunch and dinner, loaded with veggies. And drinking a lot of water. I was cutting out all junk food, excess sugar, and limiting my calories. The soup filled me up I also made my cabbage soup and bean soup so I had variety throughout the week. I am redesigning my blog and I will share with you more recipes that you can use to help. I am almost done so I will be back to sharing recipes quickly.
