Healthy chili fries/2 recipes

More of a stew than a soup as the broth is absorbed and thickened by the soba noodles. Very hearty and loaded with goodies. The flavorful broth covers all of the ingredients more like a sauce.

Roasting concentrates the flavour and the roasted garlic doubles up on the depth of flavours. The portobello mushrooms add a meaty texture, and pine nuts add a nutty highlight.
