Creamy Chicken & Veggie Soup

With Ramadan on its way, a bowl of comforting and nutritious soup is in order. I personally don’t make soups often; it isn’t something I usually crave. That is why you don’t see too many on my blog but I knew I had to venture out of just drinking lentil soup all Ramadan. I present to you this creamy chicken & veggie soup that is so simple, hearty, and full of flavor.

A recipe for this soup in particular has been requested by many of you several times and I know why! It is GOOD and filling. The vegetables I chose have loads of vitamins which will be extremely beneficial especially in Ramadan to break fast with.

Creamy Chicken & Veggie Soup Benefits:

Kale: high in Fiber, Iron, Vitamin C & K

Carrots: High in fiber, Potassium, and Antioxidants

Potatoes: High in Vitamin B6 & C, and Fiber

Mushrooms: High in Protein & Fiber

Chicken Stock: Full of Collagen, Amino Acids, Minerals, Marrow, and Nutrients

    I’ve been looking for a great soup recipe and I’ve definitely found it! This was delicious and the instructions were so easy to follow. I dislike kale so I used spinach instead. Will be making again very soon!
