I agree, there’s nothing quite like a hot bowl of chicken noodle soup on a cold winter evening. But, traditional chicken noodle soup is not keto-friendly, as it contains noodles, which are high in carbohydrates.
That’s why I love this recipe for Keto Low-Carb Chicken Zucchini Soup. It’s a delicious and satisfying soup that is perfect for people on a keto diet. The zoodles (zucchini noodles) are a great low-carb substitute for traditional noodles, and they add a delicious texture to the soup.
This soup is also very easy to make. You simply need to cook some bone broth, add the zoodles, chicken, and your favorite vegetables. Then, simmer everything together until the vegetables are tender. That’s it!
This soup is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it’s also a great way to warm up on a cold winter day.
While you need pre-cooked rotisserie chicken for this soup, you can even use any leftover chicken for preparing this soup. No matter what type of chicken you use in this soup, you’ll love to have it every other evening after coming home from work. After all, it’s a perfect guilt-free, comfort food for people on a Keto diet.
I highly recommend giving it a try!
