Per serving: 207 calories, 6 g protein, 31 carbs, 8 g fat, 16 mg cholesterol,
138 mg sodium ( as listed)
My notes 1) I use a mix of cooking spray and marg. to reduce fat a little.
2) I like 3 jalapenos for the kick, some prefer 2, but 4 is a bit
much ( for soup anyway)
3) Use low sodium broth and it lowers sodium a lot!
4) be sure to use dry sherry , it really enhances the flavor.
The soup can be put in containers and can be frozen.
it reheats in microwave well.
Hi, Westerly. The Thai I made last week was guided by A Taste of Thai. Their products are in our local grocery store. I bought a packet of Peanut Chicken & Vegetables w/Noodles seasoning mix, a box of their rice noodles, a can of Coconut milk, a bottle of Thai fish sauce (this was optional) & fresh chicken & veggies. Followed the recipe on the seasoning mix & it was great! Good luck w/it.
Actually...I have done that. On birthdays of literary giants (distinguished or not), I have read some of their stuff while a song of my choosing plays in the background.
