super tasty, super fast, super nutritious.....

This recipe is super popular for my cancer patients and those who need extra calories, people recovering from surgery, malnourished patients, children and people who need food that will give them long sustained energy. Keto-dieters can modify this recipe by substituting the noodles with keto-friendly options. 
You can make this in 15. minutes, make it the day before and have it for lunch.  It's gluten and dairy free, and for the vegans, the protein component can be modified with tofu.  This recipe is SUBLIME.
