Notes
Tips to make this soup quick & easy for those crazy weeknights.
- Make the rice ahead of time, double triple the amount you need & use for future meals. You can also freeze rice for later use.
- Buy your coconut and almond milk. Check ingredient list to make sure that it's unsweetened and find a brand with very few added ingredients.
- Buy the turkey or chicken bone broth needed for the soup.
- Instead of roasting a turkey or chicken, find some boneless turkey or chicken breasts and thighs, roast in a small roasting pot at 350 till done. Adding 1/2 cup broth will keep the meat moist while roasting, keep meat covered with a lid while roasting.
