Active: 30 Total: 30

Our recent green curry noodle soup was such a hit, we're bringing another variation of it with crunchy, sweet napa and earthy mushrooms. Plus, since it uses tofu, it's also a budget meal!
Smarts: Boiling the napa and mushrooms in the soup deepens the flavor of the final broth.
