Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 stewing hen or fowl
2 qt chicken stock or broth
1/4 cup onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup carrots, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup celery, coarsely chopped;
1 tsp saffron threads, (optional)
3/4 cup corn kernels, (fresh/frozen)
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
1 tbsp parsley, fresh chopped
1 cup egg noddles, cooked
Recipe
Preparation
Combine stewing hen with chicken stock, coarsely chopped onions,
carrots, celery, and saffron threads. Bring the stock to a simmer.
Simmer for about 1 hour, skimming the surface as necessary.Remove and
reserve the stewing hen until cool enough to handle; then pick the
meat from the bones. Cut into neat little pieces. Strain the saffron
broth through a fine sieve. (Note: The soup can be made through this
step in advance. Simply refrigerate broth and diced chicken meat for
2 to 3 days, or freeze the broth and the chicken meat in separate
convenient sized containers. Be sure to label and date them. To use,
defrost, remove congealed fat, return the broth full boil, and add
the diced meat. Continue with recipe.) Add the corn, celery, parsley,
and cooked noodles to the broth. Return the soup to a simmer and
serve immediately.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
When deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
Some lower carb diet tips:
* Know what is in your food
Be sceptical of food packaging that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the rear of the tin or package. Many are only a little less and in some cases still greater than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - often the carbs are just the same.
* Fiber is crucial
Lowering the carbohydrates in your diet usually results in fiber reduction as well. Look at reduced carb recipes that are fiber-rich to redress this.
Superfoods containing flavonoids
(inlcudes cranberry, kale, scarlet runner bean and basil)
The nutrients known as flavonoids which are present in these fruits and vegetables show promise as anti-carcinogens.
Doctors who have been studying the properties of flavonoids suspect that they may well also have many other health benefits, amongst them, anti-asthma and anti-platelet powers.
A good number are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your weight loss program.
