Chicken Veggie Rice – Less Soup


Chicken and Rice Soup

Chicken Veggie Rice - Less Soup

You'll never miss the rice in this grain free alternative!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 2 hours
Course: dinner, main

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbsp Avocado Oil
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 3 stalks celery chopped
  • 4 carrots chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1.5 lb. chicken thighs organic pasture raised
  • 12 oz. frozen cauliflower rice chopped
  • 16 oz. chicken stock organic, bone broth works too
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp tumeric

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker / Crock Pot
  • Skillet

Method
 

  1. Chop all veggies! I like using the Mirepox already chopped mix from Trader Joes.
  2. Add avocado oil to skillet with veggies and cook until tender.
  3. All all ingredients to crock pot, except for califlower rice.
  4. After about an hour of cooking add cauliflower rice.
  5. Let simmer on low and add salt/pepper to taste.

Notes

Loaded with veggies this soup is so good.  You won't even realize you are missing the traditional rice.  BUT, if you can / want the extra grains/rice, add them in the last hour of cooking.  Choose a fast cook rice and no more than 1/2 cup un-cooked.
Serve with a green salad for more veggie power, or toast up a loaf of french bread.
