Noodle Chicken is always popular with kids, but the ones you buy are really high in salt. It only takes a few minutes to make your own and  it’s fun to serve them in a cup, a bit like pot noodles. This chicken noodle recipe would make a good snack after school.

All of my children ate this really well but we found it filling enough for a meal rather than a snack!
