Chicken Meatball Noodle Bowl image

from the August 2013 issue of Better Homes and Gardens magazine. Personally, I would add a little more salt to the chicken meatballs, otherwise, they are a bit bland. I also use Napa cabbage with this instead of lettuce; I just think it meshes with the dish better. There are several lovely flavors that meld beautifully in this dish
