Faux Chicken And Shrimp Pho

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This is my quick version of chicken pho, which is a fragrant, hearty Vietnamese inspired soup that can be eaten any time of the year. The broth is made fragrant with spices, ginger, garlic and veggies, which you can choose to keep, or toss. The spices/ginger/garlic can be contained in cheesecloth, or a tea infuser. This can be made low carb by omitting the noodles.

    Faux Chicken and Shrimp Pho, This is my quick version of chicken pho, which is a fragrant, hearty Vietnamese inspired soup that can be eaten any time of the year The broth is made fragrant with spices, ginger, garlic and veggies, which you can choose to keep, or toss The spices/ginger/garlic can be contained in cheesecloth, or a tea infuser This can be made low carb by omitting the noodles , I made this for dinner last night and it came out delicious I changed a few of the ingredients to assure that the broth tasted like Pho and not chicken soup Instead of chicken broth, used Pho broth You can find this at any Asian market The flavor that it gave was rich I also made sure to get the fish sauce that had less sodium If you look at the reviews you notice that the soup has over 1, 000mg of sodium, so by looking closely at the fish sauce label you can choose one that is healthier Another Ingredient that I added was Basil that was added at the end to intensify the pho broth Other than these 3 differences I followed the recipe step by step with all the ingredients and it came out Perfect
