Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. butter or olive oil
  • 1 lb. carrots, peeled & diced
  • 1/2 lb. celery hearts, diced (about 6-8 stalks)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 qts. low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube
  • 16 - 24 oz. cooked chicken, diced or shredded
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
  • 8 - 9 oz. gluten free noodles (I used a frozen cauliflower variety)

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat the butter/oil over medium heat. Add the carrots and celery and sauté for 7-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Next, add the chicken broth, bouillon cube, chicken, bay leaves, and thyme. Cover and allow to cook for 20-30 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat, remove the bay leaves, and stir in the noodles. (Note: if using dry noodles, you will need to cook separately before adding to the soup. If you try to cook the noodles in the soup, you will lose a lot of the broth.) Let noodles sit in the warm broth for a few minutes to cook.
  • Ladle into bowls and enjoy!
