Chicken Vegetable Soup
-Try out this paleo chicken vegetable soup to keep you warm & your immune system strong throughout the harsh winter months.-
I’ve got 1 word for you… BRRRRRR!
These subzero temperatures here in MN have me craving some comfort food big time! I just want to wrap up in a blanket with a warm bowl of soup, a good book, & not have to leave the house until it warms back up. Unfortunately for me, I don’t have a job where I am able to work from home so unless I plan on using up all of my vacation time (not a chance) I don’t think I’ll be staying inside any longer than a few hours before I’ll have to venture back into the cold. On the positive side, I already have some bone broth pre-made so a warm bowl of soup, a blanket, and a good book are definitely in the future for me.
Lucky for you, it’s Wednesday, and that means that it’s time for me to share another amazing soup recipe with you! I just so happened to choose Chicken Vegetable Soup for this week, which is made with my homemade chicken bone broth & is filled with endless amounts of minerals and nutrients to keep your immune system nice and strong as we battle through the bitter cold! Plus, if chicken soup isn't a comfort food, I don't know what is!
