Tena’s Ginger Chicken & Rice Soup

Perfect for allergies, flu symptoms, colds, and COVID. It just some delish, nutritious soup 🍜

1/2 cup chopped carrots

1/2 cup chopped celery

1/2 cup diced onions

1/4 cup fresh chopped ginger – peel & finely chop

-1/2 precook/roasted/leftover chicken (about 2-3lbs)

Sauté veggies in 2 tablespoons of bacon fat or olive oil (less fat) for 3 minutes. I prefer the flavor of smoke in the soup.

Add your spices while you stir/sauté. Brown chicken for 5 minutes.

❤️ Feel free to create your own 11 herbs & spices dear. Here’s a few of mine: Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, slap ya mama…👵🏽 Be creative! This is your Signature Soup 🥣 💙. I like mine a bit spicy to help clear sinus and congestion.
