Salmon Teriyaki Noodle Soup
This recipe for salmon teriyaki noodle soup was originally published in January 2018, on my previous blog, The Culinary Jumble. The images have been updated slightly, but the recipe remains the same.
I am on a health kick right now. I have ten weeks off in the summer and always start off with good intentions. By week three, I am done for. You will find me scoffing doughnuts like they’re going out of fashion. I blame my kids. Yeah, their fault.
As the weather cools, so does my desire to eat junk. This year is no exception. Soups are popping up all over my social media. I like quick, simple, healthy meals at the end of a working day and this salmon teriyaki noodle soup is exactly that.
What can I use as a substitute for salmon?
Salmon can be expensive, and is definitely a treat in our house. We often buy a whole side of salmon when it’s on special offer. What isn’t used ends up in soups, creamy pasta, or pasta salads. If you don’t have salmon, you could use anything. Chicken or pork would works so well, but why not go for a vegetarian version, instead? Throw in some peppers and mushrooms, and you’re good to go.
