    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/14/2009   You can use low sodium chichen broth( the Wal-mart broth has less sodium then the other brands check labels).also low sodium or light soy works well too. majoan  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/14/2009   Couldn't you choose to use low sodium chicken broth and soy sauce to help with the sodium content?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/13/2009   It's not likely MS will give nutritonal info b/c it would expose how unhealthy most of this food is. You have to do your own figuring, or get the calculator mtbikn212 mentioned. I would eliminate soy sauce immediately and try a tsp of sesame oil instead. It's a different taste but think of your blood pressure! There are lots substitutes to keep it healthy, you may alter the taste a little but it can be just as satisfying.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/13/2009   Thank you mtbikn212 for sharing the nutrional information for this recipe. The sodium content of Martha's recipe is very high. I agree it is very important to have the nutrional information. I do hope that if enough of us ask for that information we will finally see it posted.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/12/2009   I agree, it's time to add the nutritional information for all recipes. I threw the ingredients into a nutrition calculator and got:Calories 104.9 Total Fat 2.8 g Saturated Fat 0.8 g Polyunsaturated Fat 0.6 g Monounsaturated Fat 1.2 g Cholesterol 9.4 mg Sodium 1,797.8 mg Potassium 538.8 mg Total Carbohydrate 5.1 g Dietary Fiber 0.6 g Sugars 2.0 g Protein 14.4 g I rarely make a recipe that I can't see the nutritional info. first  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/12/2009   I agree with busywife. I love to eat good food so I need to watch every calorie, carb, etc.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/12/2009   Nutritional facts? Well, it looks healthy to me! :) But I will say that that there are enough people that ask, that maybe Martha should start posting them on at least some of the recipies. ???  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/12/2009   DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NUTRITIONAL FACTS ON THIS RECIPE?  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       03/07/2008   This soup is deceptively simple. It goes together and cooks in minutes and has much more complex flavor than it let's on. One of my favorite soup recipes!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/02/2008   This recipe is simple but tastes great! I make a portion of this vegetarian with tofu and veggie broth with equally tasty results!
