📝 Editor's Note

Ensure that the chicken is well-cooked and finely shredded to avoid any choking hazards. You can substitute spinach with other leafy greens like kale for variety.

  • 1/2 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/4 cup cooked rice noodles, chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. In a small pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In a blender, combine the cooked chicken, rice noodles, sautéed spinach, and chicken broth.
  4. Blend until smooth, adding more broth if needed to reach desired consistency.
