Creamy Chicken Soup
Embarking on my GAPS Diet journey has sparked the creative side of my cooking. Looking for fun and different ways to enjoy the limited foods that I can eat, while focusing on healing my leaky gut. (GAPS Induction Friendly)Even if you are not following the GAPS Diet, this soup is really easy and very HEALTHY. It’s also ideal for those of you whom are doing a 21DSD or Whole30. It’s amazing how rich and creamy this soup is, even though there isn’t any grain or starch used. By cooking veggies in the broth until they are very soft they can be blended into a smooth, velvety soup… that really does taste like a traditionally starch thickened creamy soup! After the veggies are blended THEN I add in the chicken and diced carrots – gently simmer them to cook.
Garnish each bowl with a generous serving of diced Avocado (trust me avocado is super yummy in hot soups! and if you are following the GAPS diet, I add in sauerkraut juice or raw cultured sour cream to my bowl for probiotics. Yummy!
