Udon Noodle Soup

Udon Noodle Soup is a perfect meal on a cold winter’s day. My son just finished his second Whole 30 diet plan (more about that later this month). He lost 49 pounds in 60 days. Unbelievable, right? He was determined to stick to this diet and his auto-immune symptoms felt a little bit better as well, winning! The one food he really missed while on the Whole 30 was soup with noodles. This Udon Noodle Soup was made with love for him on the completion of his diet.

An easy soup that is ready in minutes? Yup! This Udon Noodle Soup was quite easy to make. It should not take you more than 5 minutes to prep your veggies, and then about 10-15 minutes to prepare the soup. These noodles are precooked and all you need to do is warm them up. Great way to save time for busy parents! My kids loved slurping these big noodles up in the soup.

This soup can be customized quite easily. Whatever vegetables your family enjoys, add them in. If you prefer this to be a vegetarian soup, just use vegetable broth and the original flavor Udon noodles. I prefer to use the Fortune noodles because they:

  • are made from 100% natural ingredients
  • are fortified with ALA Omega-3
  • have no MSG
  • can be ready in minutes
  • sauce packet is separate, so you can use the noodles separately or with the seasoning
