Rustic Chicken Veggie Soup

Soups are the healthiest option that you can have in dinner. Soup recipes are abundantly available on online sites, cookbooks and recipes from our mothers and grannies. However, one need to understand the nutritional values of a soup. Adding cream or fats no doubt make soup little creamy and flavorful but unnecessarily adds extra calories in the soup. So, if you are a weight-watcher or health freak then you need to understand the goodness of each and every ingredient that you add in the recipe.

If you are planning to have soup in dinner as a meal. Then it is important to have soups which are filling but without making it overly full. Today I am making a soup named Rustic Chicken Veggie Soup. This soup got all the flavors of chicken and vegetables and have a chunky and chewy texture which allow you to eat (or chew) your soup which again help you make your tummy full.

This recipe is inspired from Macro Pierre White. He made this recipe only with vegetables but I have added chicken breasts in it which make this recipe not just scrumptious but a complete delight. I just few little changes here and there. I like my soups to have a chewy texture but if you want you can simply puree it with a blender to have a smooth texture; still I will suggest to keep the texture rustic and raw as it will give you fiber and roughage for the proper digestion. You can mash the veggies if you want!

So, let’s start cooking!!
