I am really excited about this Chicken Noodle Soup as this is my first ever post for the "Secret Recipe Club." How does this club work? This is a very large group of food bloggers who are each secretly assigned to another members blog every month. The last is to pick something from the assigned blog, cook, shoot, and blog about the recipe.
I was so excited to receive my first assignment. I was given the blog Eliot's Eats, which was very exciting as this was a completely new page to me. The writters of Eliot's Eats are a middle aged couple who love food, travel, and adventure. Debra, who works as an administrator at a public high school, writes the posts while her husband, who works in technology, provides lots of ideas and support.
You all know that I have a pretty big sweet tooth, so I tried so so hard to go by all the delicious sweets on Debras page to find a delicious savory dish. I managed to achieve this and I was rewarded with this wonderfully flavorful Chinese Five Spice Chicken Noodle Soup.
Don't forget to check out the original recipe too!
