This high protein chicken noodle soup is great for athletes, bodybuilders, meal preppers, or anyone who just wants a delicious and nutritious meal. It keeps well, freezes well, and is an excellent way to prepare bulk high protein meals ahead of time.

BULKING TIPS

If you are bulking and want to increase your calories, you can do this pretty easily by substituting lean chicken breast with a fattier cut of chicken, like chicken thighs and legs.  It also goes great with a nice hearty bread.

Cutting TIPS

It’s tough to remove calories from this dish as it’s so simple and low calorie already.  It’s basically chicken cooked in chicken broth with various seasonings.  You could possibly remove the noodles/carbs from this dish to help make it low carb, leaving you a delicious keto-friendly broth full of nutritious chicken and vegetables.

Rich in omega 3’s and high in protein this meal will leave you feeling very satisfied.

Come each meal time, it is important that we are having a serve of both protein and healthy fats as part of what is plated before of us. The protein we receive from the foods we eat is used by every part of our body. Protein ensures our bodies develop, grow and function properly. It is also known that protein works at stabilising blood sugar levels, can help with weight loss, supports muscles and bones, not to mention helps with the absorption of vital nutrients.

Healthy fats such as omega 3’s found in salmon are an essential part of what we should be eating to live a healthy lifestyle. We need fat to absorb certain nutrients such as fat-soluble vitamins and antioxidants. Fat is also important for cell structure as well as nerve, brain and heart function. Omega 3’s are also well known for supporting healthy nail, skin and hair; can reduce the risk of heart disease and fight depression and anxiety!

We guarantee you won’t be disappointed with this meal, put it on the list next time you’re looking to add some variety to your dinner. Serve with your favorite selection of vegetables or side salad. We highly recommend sautéing a mixture of Asian greens in a little ghee or butter with garlic and pinenuts…. DELISH!

I like to pair my high protein teriyaki chicken with broccoli, as it’s high on fiber, vitamins, and minerals.  With as much meat as we like to get in every day, it’s incredibly important to keep your fiber up.  The fact that broccoli tastes delicious paired with teriyaki chicken is an added bonus.

This meal is great for post-workout, lunch, or dinner.  It’s got the nutrients required to begin repairing and aiding your body, and to begin refueling your body for your next workout.

Cut Calories

You can cut extra calories from this by completely removing the brown sugar, which will shave off roughly an extra carb per serving.

You can also cut calories by going completely with chicken breast, instead of half-thigh meat.  This will save you 80 total calories and 10 grams of fat over the whole dish.

Lastly, you can easily cut calories by cutting the amount of broccoli served with this.  I like broccoli because it’s high in fiber and it’s a great energy source, but if you’re going keto, you could easily cut the broccoli in half or all together and potentially shave off 400 extra calories.

Add Calories

You can add calories by going full thigh meat.  This will add a considerable amount of fat to your meal, which if you’re bulking, may be exactly what you need.

You can add calories and a ton of flavor by adding an extra tbsp of butter to the final dish sauce.  This will add a ton of extra flavor, and a ton of extra calories.
