Whole30 Chicken Pot Pie Soup

I first made this when I did my January Whole30, but it has quickly become a member of our regular meal rotation.  I envision eating it on cold wet spring days.  I hope you all enjoy it too!  If you make it please send me a picture of yours to happyhippymama@yahoo.com. I changed the recipe slightly but mostly followed https://www.realfoodwithjessica.com/2017/09/04/paleo-whole30-chicken-pot-pie-soup/ recipe.

Happy eating! :) 

Ingredients: 

Soup Mixture:

  • 1 pound organic Yukon gold potatoes chopped

  • 1 cup of water

  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk

Soup:

  • 3 tablespoons oil/fat of choice (olive, coconut, ghee, avocado)

  • 1 1/2 cup chopped carrots about 3 medium

  • 1 1/2 cups chopped celery

  • 1 cup diced green onion or yellow onion

  • 1 pound diced organic Yukon gold potatoes

  • 3-4 cups broth or water

  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme

  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary

  • 1 1/2 cups frozen french green beans

  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

  • 2 pounds cooked chicken pulled or chopped

Instructions:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine potatoes with 1 cup of water. Cover and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once cooked, turn the heat off, drain, add almond milk, and blend using an immersion blender. Leave it in the pan as you finish making the soup.

  2. While the potatoes are cooking, start the soup. In a large pot or dutch oven, combine garlic oil, fat, carrots, celery, green onions, and potatoes. Sauté for about 5 minutes.

  3. Add 3-4 cups broth or water, thyme, rosemary, green beans, and salt. Cover and cook 10 minutes, stirring regularly.

  4. Add the potato puree to the soup, stir in chicken and cook for 10 more minutes uncovered.
