Taste of Asia

I love the clean, fresh taste of Asian food. Something about Asian food makes me feel skinny just thinking about it!  I had left over vegetables, so I came up with this Asian Chicken Noodle Salad to use them up. It is colorful, SKINNY, and fast. What's not to love about that combo?!

Here's What You Need:Non-stick spray
1 chicken breast
Sweet curry powder
Low sodium soy sauce
1/3 package of spaghetti noodles
1 cup mixed peppers
1 carrot, shaved with a vegetable peeler
Handful of baby spinach
Handful of peanuts
Handful of cilantro, chopped
Asian salad dressing*
Salt and pepper

Here's What You Do:Spray grill pan with non-stick spray. Sprinkle chicken with curry and "grill" approximately 6 minutes per side. Drizzle with low sodim soy and then cut into small pieces and set aside. Cook and drain noodles according to the packages directions and put into a large bowl. Mix in the chicken, peppers, spinach, carrots cilantro, and peanuts using tongs. Add the dressing to taste. Pass soy along with the dish.

Kid Tip:
If you have older kids, I suggest bringing out the chopsticks to try and make this a "fun" meal. If your kids are younger, you may want to toss the ingredients (less the noodles) with rice as it will be easier for them to eat.

*I used Girards Chinese Chicken Salad dressing, but if you can, find an organic one to eliminate the high fructose corn syrup. Annie's has several options. Like our recipes? Like us on Facebook, so you don't miss any!
