Try This Meatless Sopas Recipe That's Packed With Flavor

Sopas is an iconic Filipino soup that deserves center stage. While everyone raves about adobo and sinigang, all of us who wake up to rainy days and canceled classes know that sopas is Filipino comfort food at its finest. Different families have different sopas ingredients and ways of cooking sopas but most usually revert to some kind of milk, macaroni noodles, and meat. This recipe teaches you how to make creamy and delicious sopas without the meat but with all the flavor thanks to a combination of Knorr Chicken Cube and Knorr Cream of Mushroom Soup.

Tips

Serve the sopas and macaroni noodles separately to prevent the noodles from soaking up all the soup. This helps with keeping the sopas fresh when there’s leftovers and prevents the noodles from getting soggy.
