Think of this soup like an upgraded, detox version your favorite chicken and rice soup from growing up (that possibly could have come straight from a can 😳😬). A hug in a bowl with with brightened flavors and packed with nourishing ingredients. time to love yourself!
This soup will come together in less than 30 minutes thanks to shredded, store-bought rotisserie chicken and frozen cauliflower rice (I stock up on bags of cauli rice like it’s the apocalypse and I suggest you do as well!). I also bought pre-chopped onions, carrots and celery – sometimes it’s just worth the extra dollar or two! Lastly the lemon juice and fresh herbs are essential for flavoring so no substituting for dry.
