With the New Year comes the lighter side of life, at least in the kitchen. Here’s an easy recipe to try, full of inspired Asian flavors Ginger Chicken Noodle Bowl!

I’m enjoying the lighter fare that we all seem to gravitate towards after a rich (and pleasant) spread of Holiday foods. In this recipe, I’ve deconstructed and heated up the usual Dipping Sauce found in my Soba Noodle recipe, then made a couple of tweaks to give it a bit of a winter warming flair.

For the noodles I did use Udon this time, but feel free to substitute them for your favorite rice or soba noodles, all of which will be gorgeous tasting. If you are of the meatless variety, then feel free to substitute the chicken for tofu or add in more veg to bring up the complete meal feel.

This year, my resolution is to keep life as balanced as possible with great intention. If I have a mishap here or there, I’m not going to curl up in the corner and start rocking myself, ha … BUT I will give myself some grace and mercy and keep moving forward. What I love about the New Year, is the whole feeling of giving your life a fresh start in any and every area. Not to worry there will those days that I will be sharing adequate amounts of chocolate recipes, I won’t turn a blind eye to one of the most amazing foods on the planet, but you will also find an array of recipes on the lighter side, slow cooker side and sweet side.
