boxes of naughty, spicy goodness

the majority of meals i make are either from scratch, or using very little ready-made food. one glaring exception uses mostly packaged food, with a little fresh tossed in for bulk. since coming up with the recipe (can it still be called a recipe?) it's been one of my favorites. the menfolk don't like it, so i've no guilt in making it as often as i can.

here are the naughty ingredients:
both are not low in salt, so if you're watching your intake please don't make this meal. there... that's my responsible disclaimer.

kimchi noodle soup revamp

1 box annie chun's korean kimchi noodle soup

1/2 box imagine no-chicken broth

1/2 head of cabbage

1) chop cabbage into bite-sized pieces

2) place cabbage, broth, & both kimchi's season packets into a pot. bring this to a boil, then turn the flame down to simmer.

3) when the cabbage is nearly to your liking (in this recipe i like mine with no crunch left) add the kimchi's noodles. simmer for 3-5 more minutes, then serve!

(in which 'serve' means 'don't share with anyone')

* notes: even with the additions, this soup is really spicy. if you don't like that much heat, add more broth. this makes enough for one big meal. if you feel you really must share, then serve it with a side of rice, or some yummy asian veggies.*

make this, then make another for me. yum!
