LOTS of parents know that their children can become fixated on unhealthy foods and want them every single meal time.
So one mum came up with a bright idea and recreated her kids’ favourite super noodle dish in a way she says is more nutritious – and it costs just 75p per portion.
TikTok user This Mum Cooks, who specialises in sharing “budget friendly meal ideas”, told her followers she’d been inspired by her children’s latest eating habit.
She explained: “My kids seem to be obsessed with super noodles right now, I don’t know what it is.
“But I don’t really find that there’s much nutritional value to them.
“So this evening I’ve decided to make our own version of slow cooked super noodles – here’s hoping that the kids don’t mind!”

This Mum Cooks then shared the details of the recipe and how to make it.
She began by finely chopping some onions and leeks, before adding some garlic, a stock cube and some chilli.
She added: “When I’m using the slow cook, I don’t bother boiling down the stock, I just throw it in.”
The keen cook then added the meat from a packet of chicken legs, which cost £1.20.

Next, she put everything into the slow cooker – including the chicken bones – as well as a chopped up carrot.
This Mum Cooks explained: “Those bones and the carrot are going to make an amazing stock.
“Once it’s been simmering on low for five and a half hours, I remove all of the bones, and the carrot.
“Then I add in a can of coconut milk, noodles and sweetcorn. It’s then going on high for around 40 minutes.”
The result? An easy, nutritious meal for the whole family, which cost just 75p per portion.
