A family member makes the BEST chicken noodle soup that I was craving however, it has some big "no-no" ingredients in it for the HCG diet such as butter, flour, etc. I embarked on an attempt to make a similar but HCG friendly version.
Chicken Noodle(less) Soup - (1 serving)
3.5oz chicken cubed and trimmed
1/2 cup Chicken Broth (no sugar added)
1 1/2 cup water
1 cup chopped Celery
1/4 cup chopped Red Onion
1/4 tsp ground / regular Thyme
1/4 tsp Parsley Flakes
Salt & Pepper to taste
1/2 - 1 clove minced Garlic
I'm a huge flavor fan so I actually added a little more thyme to the soup. Since chicken broth is a questionable food for the HCG diet phase 2, you can omit it and still get a great tasting soup.
I put all the ingredients in the crock pot on low and let it go all day. When I got home , it was ready and oh so delicious! The Chicken and Celery were very tender and provided a lot of "bulk" to the soup so I finished it feeling full and satisfied. Another one I'll do again!
