JoAnna Gluten Free's Chef's Soulful Recovery Soup

JoAnna Gluten Free's Chef's Soulful Recovery Soup (Or JoAnna's Indonesian Recovery Soup

**

This soup is amazing, healing and also very kid friendly! As a mom of 4, my kids love it. It gives you so much of an auto Immune boost when you are feeling down, getting sick or already really sick.
. There is also a Paleo/Gaps Version ( pretty much omit the pasta and if wished used sweet potatoes) .

I am improving a smaller portion recipe so double it for a fuller stock pot. Use ORGANIC ingredients when possible!

5 to 6 cups of Homemade Stock (here is a link to mine): Homemade Stock and Remouillage
3 Tab of Olive oil or Bacon Grease
3 cups of Left over Roast Chicken OR 2 chicken breasts
1 whole onion (optional; we don't use)
2 inches of fresh ginger
1 inch of fresh turmeric 
1 nice bunch of fresh parsley 
1 nice bunch of fresh thai basil or regular basil 
6 stalks of celery
3 to 4 huge chard leaves
5 large carrots 
6 garlic cloves 
2tsp of dried turmeric
1Tsp of Cumin
3 to 4 green onions (for topping)
sea salt and fresh cracked pepper 
*If you are not grain free, add 1 and 1/2 cups of dried pasta shells or noodles, whichever you like to use. Tinkyada is my favorite brand. You may also use sweet potatoes :)

First I do all the prep by cutting up all of the veggies and herbs.

Take a Medium Stock Pot and add your grease or oil. Add the carrots, celery and onion if used. Steam a bit and add salt and pepper.

Next you'll add the garlic, turmeric, ginger and the dried herbs then add in the chard and already roasted chicken. If you are adding the pasta or sweet potatoes, pour in the broth and turn the stove on high to boil the noodles. If you are leaving the pasta out, pour the broth in and turn the stove to medium to simmer the soup.

When the pasta or sweet potatoes are done (Al-dente PEOPLE!) LOL,
add the fresh basil and parsley and stir. Remove from the heat and cover for 5 minutes.

Get your freshly made gluten free bread and salad with homemade ranch dressing ready and get to eating! 
Oh and don't forget to add the freshly cut green onions, YUMMY!COPYRIGHTED: JoAnnaGlutenFreeChef&HealthEnthusiast All images & content are copyright protected. Please do not use my images without prior permission. ALWAYS link back to this post for the recipe.

Trying something alittle New

GREETINGS ALL !!!!
***

Me Being very silly , was playing in the orchard with the kids and someone Snapped a Pic heheh

I am going to try something new; add something fresh and different into the regular. I don't know why I don't write more blog posts - I can still write even if there is not recipe attached :). Oh wait, that's right, life has been incredibly crazy and challenging, yep, that's it! LOL!

Do you ever feel like your summer came and went in a flash? Like it is fall already and you never got to do much of what you wanted to accomplish before summer flew by? That was totally us this year! On the one hand, I am happy that I got a lot of cleaning and organizing done, but it feels as though it hasn’t stopped! Seriously, I feel as if I'm still doing that very same thing! Am I the only one?? I hope not hahaha!

When a family of 6 lives in barely 800 sq feet , some challenges arise. In the end though it’s about perspective and the pro's outweigh the cons. Really, it’s all about perspective and timing and what season you are in even though this season has turned into over a decade ...

***

Anyway, enough of that! My dream was and still is to blog, but in more than just recipes and food. For those who are new or just beginning to read, here are some of my other passions. If there is one or ever more that you are interested in, feel free to reply and reach out!

Here are some other things I love to write about:

Of course food: gluten free and allergen free everything! I love cooking, baking, drying, canning, fermenting and foraging to name a few. I also have 20 + years of experience in making and using natural supplements, essential oils and homeopathic remedies and tinctures. This healthy living, it’s a lifestyle - I don't use the word diet in this house!

***

I also enjoy home schooling, budgeting, thrifty living, DIY's/hacks, crafts with kids and crafts while the kids are in bed (:p), home decor, gardening, movies, books, literature, I am actually writing an Fantasy Allegory , homesteading and emergency prep and storage.

Here is a Pillow i HANDMADE ( #SEWINGBYHAND )

  I am just going to continue to write.  I think it’s a good outlet and I love to help people all I can. I also love to learn from you so here’s to many more years as I continue my ministry to help people since 2011.
