Low-Carb, Gluten-Free Crock-pot Chicken Soup
Lunches are a struggle at our house. We never seem to have enough options for something quick during the work-day lunch hour. So, to solve this issue we make a meal ahead of time and munch on easy re-heatable leftovers for the week.

I will often make something in the crock-pot like chili, stew, or soup or make a casserole or two. This is the best solution I’ve come up with to ensure we don’t get stuck without healthy options and have to resort to less healthy, more convenient options like…dare I say it…the drive-thru.

Here’s a good chicken soup recipe sans noodles, but for you gluten-free folks who allow items like gluten free pasta. You could easily add the noodles back in.

I need to be able to scale it easily to make large batches for canning and it’s just plain easier to throw it all in the pot and let it cook so I can make this any time.

Here’s what I came up with…

My body just doesn't like refined sugars, starchy carbs, or processed junk. I feel best on a boat load of supplements eating high fat, moderate protein, and low carb.

Sharing low-carb, sugar free, grain free, gluten free love!
