Healthy Chicken Noodle Soup
Whether your sick or just cold on a winter day, this healthy chicken soup is nourishing and warming for the body! I like making a big batch and freezing it for later.
Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded chicken (I use rotisserie chicken)
- 64 oz. chicken or bone broth (2 boxes)
- 3 large carrots (peeled and chopped)
- 3 celery stalks (peeled and chopped)
- 1/2 onion (chopped)
- 3 tsp. minced garlic
- 1 pkg noodles (I use the gf ones from Aldi)
- 2 Tbsp. avocado oil
- 1 tsp. salt (more to taste at the end)
- 1/2 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 tsp. turmeric
Instructions
- Prepare the veggies and shred the chicken.
- Heat the oil in a large pot over a medium high heat.
- Add in the veggies and sautee until mostly soft.
- Once soft, add in the broth, chicken and spices.
- Bring to a boil and then reduce to low and cover for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While this is cooking, you can prepare the noodles separately according to the package. I like to do this because if you add them to the soup directly, they will soak up all of the liquid.
- After the 15-20 minutes, taste the soup and add more salt/pepper to your liking.
- To serve, add the noodles to the bowl and then ladle the soup over the top.
- You can serve with fresh parsley, crackers or toast.
