I recently upgraded my cookware. It is more of the small changes I have been making over the last two years to improve my health. I have not only been eating a more healthy diet, but have taken steps to reduce toxins. I changed to stainless steel cookware. I have been enjoying using my new cookware, this week making some chicken soup.
When I make chicken soup I think of my mom. She always seem to have a pot of this on the stove. She made her own noodles, cutting them by hand, which she learned from her Slovak grandmother.
I changed up her version of this soup making it a bit more Keto friendly. Instead of the egg noodles she would use, I substituted Shirataki pasta. They are a pasta substitute. The noodles are made from the root of the Konnyakuimo plant. I get mine on-line from Thrive Market or from Amazon. I have also seen them in the produce section of some grocery stores.

I made my bone broth the day before by cooking a couple of leg quarters. I used the chicken and broth needed for this recipe and froze the leftovers.
Pre-Keto Chicken Soup
6 cups chicken bone broth
3 cups cooked chicken
1/2 yellow onion
1 carrot sliced
2 stalks of celery chopped
2 sprigs of fresh Rosemary
2 cups frozen green beans
1 package Shirataki noodles
Place broth into a stock-pot. Add the chicken, onions, carrots, celery and Rosemary. Bring to a simmer. Add the green beans and cook for 15 minutes. Add the noodles and cook for 5 minutes.
