Chicken and Rice Soup
We are still on a quest to try different 'Foods From Around the World' here at our house but there is a storm going on outside so a Spicy Chicken and Rice Soup just sounded perfect!
I have never been big on making soup. If we wanted it, I would just reach for a can of Campbell's finest! That is no longer an option since we discovered Payne's (my son) intolerance to Gluten, Casein, refined sugar, preservatives, and well.. pretty much everything. :) I really like the idea of covering as many food groups as I can in one dish so, soup became the obvious choice.
I have tried a few different soup recipes but have always been disappointed for one reason or another. Either they turn out to be bland tasting or the GF noodles get mushy when we re-heat. That is definitely not the case with this soup! It's DELICIOUS!! Don't believe me? Try it for yourself.
Let me know what you think! ;)
- Healthy and Gluten Free Chili? YES!
When my husband tried this recipe he flipped! He considers himself somewhat of a Chili connoisseur and this was a definite winner. I tried a variety of different recipes but this one beat them all at our house.
